Piercing x The defender collects *x* less defence dice, e.g. Piercing 1. If the rule is Piercing Crits *x*, this only comes into effect if you retain any critical successes.
Blast x The target you select is the primary target. After shooting the primary target, shoot with this weapon against each secondary target in an order of your choice (roll each sequence separately). Secondary targets are other operatives visible to and within *x* of the primary target, e.g. Blast 2" (they are all valid targets, regardless of a conceal order). Secondary targets are in cover and obscured if the primary target was.
