Now that wards are mobile (I am correct that you can put them on mobile vehicles, yes?) what happens if you drive your warded vehicle into a warded area? I couldn't seem to find rules for colliding astral forms other than entities breaking or sleazing wards. Could just be my poor research, can anyone point me in the right direction?

IIRC You would need to make an object resistance test for both wards, and I would follow by a crash test as well. Think of it as hitting a wall.

Except that an Assensing Mage trying to run through a Barrier he didn't see - and failing - is knocked out (Stun) mentally rather than smashed up (Physical) in the meat.

I've had this question for ages, since mobile Wards are only possible through use as Biofiber - as far as I know. So, would the Biofiber;
A) Die (Gone forever OR Lose Force, perhaps temporarily - hey it's a plant, they can grow back)
B) Be wounded (Just take damage - although then you've still got the question of movement, unless it 'punches a hole' temporarily)
C) Have it's little planty brain 'knocked-out'. (Although even this is stupid, because it's Dual-Natured, meaning it's always on/a barrier).

This isn't just a small issue. What happens when your smuggler tries to defeat Airport Security with his shielded smuggling Cyberware? Escaping with the McGuffin in a shielded briefcase, to stop Track attempts? Try to punch a Projecting mage with a Biofibre-lined gauntlet?
