Armor is an attribute that some units will use to deflect certain types of damage.
Types of Armor
Shock Armor
Piercing Armor
Arrow Armor
Gun Armor
Laser Armor
Purpose
Armor protects the user from certain types of damage. Lots of units come with two types of armor, such as a Longsword using Shock and Arrow Armor, as they are meant to kill Archers, equal in fighting other Shock damage units (such as an enemy Swordsmen), and weak vs Piercing Damage, such as Pikeman. This creates the combat triangle, which gets more complex with each passing Epoch. If an enemy gets to a higher Epoch faster then you, it could mean dire consequences, such as if an enemy advances to Digial Age and your still in Modern, as no unit you own has Laser Armor, and will easly be overrun by laser-wielding troops as you fight them with outdated guns which are less effective.
