Under Altered Form, it states:
Quote:
Rubbery bodies or those made of matter (earth, sand, water, insects, and so on) have +4 armor against attacks resulting from other matter and kinetics (including bullets, fists, etc .) .
Bodies made of energy are exactly opposite (+4 armor versus energy attacks but no protection against physical damage) .
Does this Armor bonus count as Heavy Armor? If not, and a character takes the Armor Power with the Heavy Armor modifier, does it then count as Heavy Armor? _________________ "Your GM is metagaming ... and wrong!"

Nope, it would state it if it did.

A character either has Heavy Armor as an ability or they don't. It has no effect on how Armor bonuses themselves work at all. _________________ Clint Black
