Natural Armor, Arcane Armor, and Celestial Armor

[Dr_Chill]

This is in reference to the question posted on the Rules Marshal Forum (linked below) where several marshals had different interpretations of how they would rule.
http://www.alliancelarp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=17297

1) Can a creature with thick hide (natural armor) use Arcane Armor in concert with their natural armor?
2) Can a creature with thick hide (natural armor) use Arcane Armor if their natural armor is reduced to 0?

3) Can a PC in a golem with natural armor use arcane armor in concert with their construct's "thickened body"
4) Can a PC in a golem with natural armor use arcane armor if their natural armor is reduced to 0?

5) Can a PC in a golem with natural armor use the high magic ability of Celestial Armor in concert with their construct's "thickened body"?
6) Can a PC in a golem with natural armor use the high magic ability of Celestial Armor if their natural armor is reduced to 0?

Thank you for your time in clarifying this situation!

This post is to inform you that your question is currently being discussed by the ARC and once some clarification has been made will be posted here. Depending on the level of clarification and discussion (and potential involvement of the Owners or other national staff, if needed) this may take time.

To eliminate confusion, ARC would like to clarify that the following passage:

Creatures with natural armor can never wear physical armor nor Arcane Armor at the same time.

should have the "at the same time" verbiage removed, to make it crystal clear that a creature with Natural Armor may never take advantage of other types of other armor, period.
