♨️ Energy Resistance represents a material’s ability to absorb, dissipate, or deflect Energy damage such as lasers, plasma, electricity, or heat.
Energy Resistance applies only to Cover Objects, not to armor worn by creatures.
Effect of Energy Resistance
When an Energy ⚔ Attack strikes a Covered Limb, compare the attack’s damage to the cover’s ♨️ Energy Resistance.
Penetration Resolution
Let:
- D = Energy damage of the attack
- R = the cover’s ♨️ Energy Resistance
| Damage Comparison | Result |
|---|---|
| D < R | The attack is fully blocked. No damage is dealt to the cover or the target. |
| R ≤ D < 2R | The attack chips the cover. The cover takes D − R damage. The target takes no damage. |
| D ≥ 2R | The attack penetrates the cover. The cover takes D − R damage, and the target takes D − 2R damage. |
