I would also support a sort visiual feedback for players to see how the weapon actually performs.
But you have to devide between small arms and tank guns here.
For small arms it is pretty simple. As I said small arms have a standard penetration of 1, so only the armor value of the infantry unit actually matters. So Grens, Pgrens, Shocktroops and Guards have higher basic armor and vet in general adds armor. A little icon like a shield or something to indicate their resilience against small arms would be good.
For the bigger guns this is different, since here also the penetration value varies. Relic already categorized the armor groups a little: Vehicles, Light Armor, Medium Armor, Heavy Armor.
So you have to define a somewhat "standard armor" for each group, like:
- Vehicles 5 - 30 -> 15 standard
- Light Armor 50 - 80 -> 65 standard
- Medium Armor 100 - 200 -> 150 standard
- Heavy Armor 200 - 400 -> 300 standard
Then you have to say what actually is a good, decent and bad chance to penetrate? Let's say 60%+ good, 15% till 60% decent, less then 15% bad.
Then the there could be a small list in the unit description like the one in COH1 showing icons like you said Muffin, indicating the weapon performance against each group of armor.
