Do I need to pay the points for a normal shield to get an enchanted one?
If a unit were to have a 2+ armour save than get +1 from something I know it would be a 2+ against str 3. But is it a 2+ against str 4 too?

In the case of a 2+ save, it becomes a 1+ save.
1+ saves still fail on rolls of a 1, but they are a 1+ for the purpose of str modifiers.
Basically, they ignore the first penelty to their dice roll.
In 7th there was no limit to how low armor could go.
WoC could get guys with 0+ or even -1 armor saves.

Lizardmen could get to -1+ as I recall, with a cold one and their scaly save and an enchanted shield

I think an oldblood could get to -2+.
4+ scaly skin
+2 for cold one
+1 for light armor
+2 for enchanted shield...

Yeah, -1
WoC could have Chaos Lord(Jugger, enchanted shield) 4+ chaos armor, +3 for Jugger, +2 for enchanted shield. Still just -1 armor. If one of the new helms could be taken then it would be -2.
Still, thats dang good. 2+ armor save against Str6 attacks and below. 6+ armor against cannonball FTW!!!
