Armor Class Confusion

[Stivi_Deluxe]

Iam a bit confused by the armor rules ( Fallout PNP 2.0 JM).
The Damage Formula is :

(Initial Damage - Threshold) - ((ID -
DT) X DR, round down).

But i dont know what the AC does, i dont find an explanation in the Rules. Perhaps im just blind ^^.

sry for bad english.

Don't know if it's still interesstin, but the AC, written in a %-Nummer, is to be subtracted from the characters to-hit-chance.

Example:
If character one tries to shoot character two (who wears an armour with an AC of 30) with a pistol and character one has a skill of 65%, than the player of character one must roll a d100 on a modified skill of 35 (65% skill - 30% zarget-AC) to hit the target.
