Hardened Armor now provides automatic damage reduction hits equal to half its rating. For example, a Force 4 spirit when materialized would have (through Immunity against normal weapons) a Hardened Armor of 8, therefor scoring 4 hits on damage reduction automatically, plus whatever it rolls.
My question: Are the automatically scored hits calculated BEFORE the Armor Piercing value of the attack gets factored in, or AFTER? Example: If I shoot the spirit with APDS ammo, does he receive 4 automatic hits, or only 2? |
