All of the ACP for medium armors are adjusted into the -3 or -4 range (with one exception). In addition, sleeping in armor doesn't fatique you if the ACP is -4 or lower. This means that in AE you can sleep in almost all medium armors and you don't take fatique penalties. This is a way for fighters to use medium armors when they are normally the most vulnerable...during those ambushes while your asleep.</blockquote>
