  Thanks we were discussing this tonight after posting fliers around a
local college.  We have armored people in the past but the helm was
not included.  making the armor is cheaper, but that takes  time.
Getting a college student into armor and avoiding places like Dark
Victory is a challenge.  I try not to mention Dark Victory around Sir
Axel, his head will explode!
   Thanks for this response to this question. People have sent me
private messages and shared their views with me.  Getting new fighters
in armor will be a challenge, but in this game, we seem to succeed.
