(Answered) Standing in water with no armor
« on: 13 December 2016, 00:30:38 »
Is there something covering this somewhere? As in is the unit destroyed? Does it take crit roll? Etc

Or is it not even a thing?

Option C.  I asked for others to verify what I thought was the answer, but now it's just waiting for me to get back to it.

What did you think was the answer? The way we played it the one time it came up was to take a crit roll every turn you are standing in the water.

The official forum has rules, it's not the place for my speculation.  The official answer will come when it's ready.

AS p39, Underwater Damage.
Any damage you take while underwater generates a Critical Hit roll.
If you have lose all armor and submerge, you are destroyed. (If a unit begins the game with 0 armor, it must take at least one hit before it's considered to have lost all its armor and be destroyed by being underwater).

So based on that, would you take a critical hit chance on a hit that does not breach your armor while using water as partial cover?

No, you must be submerged (all the way under water) not just in water.
