Default Av 1 or av 2

I would say that it depends on mass of POI ,clothing etc etc .

Generally I would say AV 1 in game-terms - meaning that it will stunt a rifle bullet , but stop common handgun calibers like .22, 9 mm or .45 etc .

To make it fast and playable .

But in some cases the body will be hit in an extremity that offer less protection or the body is for instance stout leading to a change up or down in AV value.

I read the book "The Somme" not long ago - it had plenty of gruesome depictions of men trying to barricade the trenches with the fallen to get some cover at least .

All in all war is ghastly business - and the General will make it more so -no doubt .
