Armour Saves
(Rule)Description: If one or more wounds are inflicted, the player whose unit is being wounded now has a chance to save the wound(s) if the wounded models have any Armour. To make an Armour Save roll, roll a D6 for each wound. The following formula determines the needed roll to disregard the wound:
7 - (Armour of the defender)
+ (Armour Penetration of the attack)
A natural roll of ‘1’ will always fail.
If the Armour Save is passed, the wound is disregarded.
See table table/armour_save_roll for the different possible results of the formula.
