Kislevite Armor

I'm about to start a Kislevite warnad and noticed that save for the captain none of the starting heroes description mentioned they can use armor (bear tamer, esaul, youths)

I familiar with the wizards restrictions and some of them especially note that they may never wear any armor. In this case is it a typo or only the captain can wear armor (and of course the henchmen)?

That seems to me to be a typo or a copy/paste error.

It seems to me that if they didn't want those specific heroes to take armor (the bear tamer, the Esaul, and the youths) then it would have specifically spelled out that they "may not wear armor".

I'd let you do it.

Ryryak seems right to me. It's just an error. If it were a theme thing (suggesting armour is rare among the often-shirtless Kislevites) then the henchmen wouldn't have access. &, in the Streltsi entry it specifies that only they are trained with Handguns, though that's much clearer from the weapon lists; if the other heroes couldn't take armour, I'm sure a similar note would explain that.

So I'd assume they can all take Armour.

Oi! Good question, but according to the basic rules of the game a warrior can be equipped with armor if it is on his equipment list and armor is on the Kislevite equipment list.

We always allow them to take armor (but its not very likely that they would, given the cost and crappiness of armor).

Yes armor as the vanilla rules goes only worth when you keep stacking up as as much as possible. Some players are pressing the case so probably we will make them some how better....
