 Well, I'm about to eat my words. Burton suggested that we use
Str + Con for armour. This might have an advantage:

 If we use Str + Con then the huge armour for large animals (ie horses,
the only large animal whose stats I have memorized), isn't as bad, since
most large animals still have 3d6 con. The Str 32, Con 11, Siz 32 horse
would have Damage Bonus +12, Armour Bonus +8 (Remember that the average
fit male, Str=Con=Siz+13, has +5 damage and armour bonus). This compares
to the current situation where the same man has +1d4 and no armour and
the same horse has +3d6 and 2 points of armour.
