(Answered) Flooded locations-as-destroyed
« on: 30 November 2020, 11:41:43 »
Following the propping-on-a-flooded-limb ruling, it seems like the answer to the following is yes, but wanted to ask because-by-the-book the answer is no.

1. Does leg flooding count as 'leg destroyed' for PSRs, e.g. auto-fall that phase and thereafter +5 to piloting checks?
2. Does leg flooding (and inoperative arms caused by flooded torsos) count as 'limb destroyed' for the purposes of determining immobile, i.e. a unit without limbs is immobile.
3. Does leg/torso flooding count as "internal damage" for the purpose of determining crippling damage, i.e. "internal damage" in three limbs / two torsos counts as crippled?

1. No.  It counts as if all leg actuators have taken a critical hit, so 4 PSRs, each with a +5 penalty.
2. Flooded limbs are not considered 'limb destroyed'.
3. Flooded locations do count as 'internal damage' in the cases you gave.
