Ahh...found it, this is a copy paste from the sticky faq thread on the d20 Modern messageboard at WOTC:10. Armor ProficiencyQ: [The Armor Proficiency (Light) feat doesn’t make sense to me.]A: Sorry it's taken me a couple days to post an answer on this topic. When I had a look at the text in the book, I was rather surprised to read what it actually said. I don't know what bizarre text transposition occurred, but what is written there is needlessly confusing. Before answering, I wanted to check with the other designers and make sure that it's supposed to work the way I thought it's supposed to work. Here's the feat as it should appear:Armor Proficiency (Light)You are proficient with light armor (see Table 4-9: Armor).Benefit: When you wear a type of armor with which you are proficient, you get to add the armor's equipment bonus to your Defense. Also, the armor check penalty applies only to Balance, Climb, Escape Artist, Hide, Jump, Move Silently, and Tumble checks.Normal: A character who wears armor with which she is not proficient adds only the armor's nonproficient equipment bonus to her Defense. Also, she suffers its armor check penalty on attack rolls and on all skill checks that involve moving.</blockquote>
