Resistance question

[arfus]

Does armor reduce damage taken by attacks, or all normal damage?
For example if I trigger a spell to do '(X) damage of of attack type normal and damage type normal', will it do less damage to units with higher armor?
If i make it do attack type Magic and damage type Normal will it still be affected by armor until I make the damage type Spell?
Thanks

Basically the rule of thumb is that magic and spells are not affected by armor points and everything else is.
Armor types, however, always work.
