Came across a discrepancy between the written rules and the Modifier Tables.
TW: Page 147:
Critical Damage: Reduce damage from kick attacks by
half for each upper and lower leg actuator damaged on the
kicking leg, with these effects being cumulative. For example,
if two leg actuators are missing, reduce the damage to one quarter
its original value, rounding fractions down.
This matches the attack modifier table on page 118 states:
Upper or lower leg actuator hit (each) +2 and half damage to kicking attack with that leg
Foot actuator hit +1 to kicking attack with that leg
However, page 38 of the BATTLEMECH MANUAL has the following under kick attacks:
Critical Damage: Reduce kick damage by half for each upper
and lower leg actuator damaged on the attacking ’Mech (rounding
down); this is cumulative. For example, an attacker with two leg
actuators damaged reduces its kick damage to 1/4 its base value.
Has Kick attacks been errated to be actuators affect kick attacks regardless which leg used, or is this an ommision from the BATTLEMECH MANUAL?
