Straight to the point:

Does APDS ammo half Armour spell ratings? If not and it does indeed count as hardened, does it stack with Military Grade armour?

Naturally your overall B/I values could get in excess of 20 with a good rating spell.
Does this mean that the power of the attack has to be over 20 to do any damage or do you count the highest of the two armours?

i.e. 11/11 is Military 9/9 Armour spell - if the power of the attack is above 11 it is defeated...
