Hey all,
Did a couple searches because I thought there was a thread on this recently but I couldn't find much newer than 2014 about it--probably just bad search-fu.
Under the errata from BMM, the current rules read like this:
Game Rules: Each point of ballistic-reinforced armor absorbs up to two points of damage from attacks of the DB or M types
before being destroyed. Leftover single points of damage are discarded, but a damage source will always destroy at least one
point of this armor.
So: You get hit in a mech with BR Armor by a LB-10X. Lets say 6 pellets hit you and they all hit different locations. When I read this rule I can see it two ways:
A. Since every pellet hits a different location, you get 6 pts of damage from the LB-X and the BR Armor effectively does nothing to help..
B. Only one point of damage gets done by the LB-X hit?
Neither of these seem fair to either party. Anyone know how this works right now?
Cheers,
