perimeter weapons targeted

Yes

 

You can spec fire or shoot them normally, however you cannot use the targeted state on them, as that only affects troopers.

 

Why can a madtrap not be considered as a trooper? They do have a profile with the special skill perimeter. In my opinion targetted is valid for a madtrap

 

Perimeter Items/Weapons are not Troopers. They only grant ARO as if they were a Troooper during their Active Turn.
Targeted State: "

• The trooper suffered a successful Attack using a Special Skill, Special Ammunition or a Hacking Program capable of causing this state.

• The trooper suffered the effect of a piece of scenery or a Special Scenario Rule or condition capable of causing this state."

There's that...

 

Perimeter Items are explicitly Weapons or Equipment, not Troopers.

 

Thanks! You learn something new every day :-)

 

They're also Figures. For when that matters (Cautious Movement being one of the most obvious examples).
