(Answered) Infantry and BA critical hits
« on: 27 June 2023, 06:29:43 »
Page 49 says that every unit except infantry and battle armor can take critical hits. It then says if a critical hit effect doesn't apply that the unit takes 1 additional damage.

There is a dispute on what that means.  My reading is that infantry and BA do not take an additional 1 damage because they are not subject to critical hits or their effects.  However, others are arguing that because there are no effects that can be applied the infantry/BA automatically take the 1 additional damage.

Who is correct?

infantry and Battle Armor do not take critical hits.  They do not take extra damage.
