Information: armour - protecting yourself

Description:
	Armour helps you to protect yourself in combat. There are many
	different types of armour, such as body armours, shields, helmets
	and so on, but only one of each type may be worn at the same time.
	As armour is usually quite bulky and heavy - especially whole-body
	armours like the plate mail - there is a (gradually rising) weight
	limit (see 'help stats'). So take the time to think about a wise
	choice of armours and weapons. Some armours will not be obvious;
	many can be magical or have varying effects corresponding to specific
	conditions. The most important thing about armour is this:

		It's only effective if you WEAR IT!

	Use 'wear <armour>' to wear an <armour>; type 'remove <armour>' to
	remove it - see 'help wear'.

Note:
	As the Nemesis Administration came to an agreement about sticking
	to British English as its standard language long time ago, it is
	"armour", NOT the American English "armor"!
