In the Vc army book it says it "grants the wearer a 2+ Armour save". How should I understand this ? That it saves a wound on a roll of two or more or that i adds two to the general armour save ? Please Help !

The Flayed Hauberk provides an armor save that (unmodified by strength) saves on a two or higher, and cannot be combined with any other types of armor to improve this save.

a 2+ save is exactly that, roll a 2 or better(before modifiers) and you save the wound.

A +2 save would be equal to -2 on the roll. So if you have heavy armor you have a 5+ save, and if you add +2 you end up with a 3+ save. It can be confusing at times to do reverse math like that, especially if you don't use a program like army builder.
