Necron Quantum Shielding

[DrLove42]

Cna see this one throwing up all kinds of questions in the eventual FAQ. As a non-necron player just want to have an idea about it

a) Is it disabled by glancing and penetrating hits, or just glances?

b) If I use a lance weapon, does the reduction to AV12 happen before or after you had this (eg is it 13 or 12)

c) If a necron player has entropic srike (that thing that reduces AV value, does that interact the same way? And is a vehcile destroywed when it take 11 of those hits, or 13?

d) How does it count for ramming?

Sure theres got to be more issues with this...

[Pikante]

A) just pen's

B) Lance weapon still works against it, decreasing it down to 12.

C) 13 because it hasn't suffered a pen yet XD

D) Would count as 13.

I suggest, next time, to actually get your hands on the rules before posting a question about a rule that you don't know.

Answers to your questions can all be found in the 'Quantum Shielding" section of the Necron Codex.

Alternatively, page 43 (UK version) of this month's White Dwarf.

Its a fairly unambiguous rule, I don't see why you are having trouble.

The trouble occurs b/c people don't actually take a moment to read.

Before you tear his *** off he might have trouble with reading. I might not be his first or even second language or he might just want it cleared out anyway.

As good a defence as you have there Fellend, I'm afraid he has a Masters Degree in Engineering and is currently studying for his PhD. I assure you English is his only language (well, possibly geek/nerd.... it's hard to tell sometimes). I think DrLove was simply trying to pre-empt likely questions based on what had been said about the rule before getting the chance to actually read it. Valient, but ultimately flawed

c) 11 hits, because quantum shielding doesn't increase the rear armor and as soon as any armor hits 0 it gets wrecked.

Fair enough

Wasn't trying to tear anything off of him.
Just pointing out the fact that 80% of the rules questions I see posted on forums and the like are pointless questions if one actually reads the rulebook and/or codex in question.
