Structure Points

(Rule)
Description:

Glancing and Penetrating hits have a chance of inflicting the loss of Structure points, and only by reducing their Structure Points to 0 can a Super-Heavy vehicle be destroyed.

Against Super-Heavy vehicles, enemies roll to hit and to penetrate armour exactly as with normal vehicles. If a glancing or penetrating hit is scored, the player must then roll a dice and consult the Super-heavy Damage Table. If a glancing hit is scored, subtract 2 from the dice score, and when a destroyer weapon scores a hit, add 1 to the dice score.

If a result reduces the target Super-Heavy vehicle to 0 Structure Points, it is destroyed - immediately roll one dice on the Catastrophic Damage table and apply the results.

It is a good idea to record the damage results suffered by each Super-Heavy vehicle on a sheet of paper, as these huge war engines can accumulate a great amount of secondary damage before finally being knocked out.
