	The action penalty is a modifier ~~subtracted from~~ your chance to perform a [[standard maneuver roll]]. A ~~maneuver~~ ~~may~~ ~~include~~ ~~anything~~ ~~from~~ ~~dodging~~ ~~[[Elemental~~ ~~Wave]]~~ ~~and~~ [[~~Earthen~~ ~~Fury~~]] ~~attacks,~~ to something as mundane as [[STAND (verb)\|standing up]].		The action penalty is a negative modifier to your chance to perform or defend against a [[standard maneuver roll]]. It will also affect other non SMR actions including defending against an [[Elemental Wave]] to something as mundane as [[STAND (verb)\|standing up]].

	The skill bonus required to reduce the action penalty to its base value is ((Roundtime Penalty * 20) - 10).		The skill bonus required to reduce the action penalty to its base value is ((Roundtime Penalty * 20) - 10). The action penalty can then be further reduced by [[Armor_Use#Overtraining_Benefits\|overtraining]] in [[Armor_use\|Armor Use]] and/or using [[armored evasion]].

⚫	For a character exactly trained for full plate at cap, the AP (-35) is a little bit above the difference between training 1x and 2x in [[Physical Fitness]]*~~. Over training in [[Armor Use]] to reduce the action penalty and/or using [[armored evasion]] can reduce the maneuver penalty by a fairly significant amount~~.

	The action penalty is also a factor in [[Defensive Strength]] (DS). The [[Combat system#Evade\|evade]] portion of DS has an armor hindrance penalty equal to 1/2 of the action penalty. For example, an action penalty of -20 results in -10% to evade DS. This penalty is likewise reduced by armor use overtraining and/or Armored Evasion.

	The armor sub-group (often referred to as ASG) is the method by which armor is categorized. Armors fall into one of five groups: Cloth, ~~Soft~~ Leather, ~~Rigid Leather~~, Chain, or Plate. Within each of these groups are 4 armor sub-groups. However, in the case of the Cloth group, armor sub-groups 3 and 4 are no longer available within the game.
