Environment

Description

VTOLs that use Ferro-Lamellor armor are able to take 0 damage to their rotors. This should prevent the destruction of mast mounts, but this isn't the game in MM. rotor damage 0 damage isn't damage, so nothing should happen to the mast mount. mast mount dead But it does.

As far as I can tell, this is working RAW.

From TO, p. 280.

Rules Level: Experimental Available To: BM, IM, CV, SV, AF, CF Tech Base (Ratings): Clan (F/X-X-F) Game Rules: A location protected by Ferro-Lamellor Armor reduces all damage by 1 point for every 5 points (or fraction thereof) delivered per hit (to a minimum of 0 points of damage per hit). Excess damage will affect internal structure or structural integrity per normal rules for the location's structure type. Weapons reduced to zero damage effects by Ferro-Lamellor Armor (such as LB-X cluster munitions), may not inflict pilot injury in the event of a cockpit-location hit, nor may they deliver a penetrating or "floating" critical from special hit location rolls. However, against Combat and Support Vehicles, such weapons may inflict Motive System damage effects normally (because such units feature more exposed movement mechanisms). In addition, Ferro-Lamellor Armor negates the bonus armor-penetrating effects of Armor-Piercing Ammo (see p. 140, TW), Tandem-Charge Missiles (see p. 372) and 'Mech Tasers (see p. 345). If these weapons are fired against a location protected by Ferro-Lamellor, they deliver their standard damage to the armor only (Armor-Piercing Ammo hits as a standard AC round; Tandem-Charge Missiles hit as standard SRMs; 'Mech Tasers inflict only 1 point of armor damage).
