Two questions that cropped up in my latest game, mission "Capture and Protext": 1. I have the Classified Objectice "Telemetry" and successfuly use Spotlight on a Trooper with Immunity (Total). He is of course immune against the attacks effects, but the card only talks about "succed at the attack": Does the classified count as fulfilled? 2. My opponent coordinates an order to rush four troopers at my beacon to pick it up. Several reach the mission objective. Who gets to pick it up? Spearhead? Player choice? Any help is appreciated, thank you.
Classified is fulfilled. It should be written better. No effect to the model but there wouldn't be an armor save anyways and even then, it's a mission objective. Theres no other instance a model would be immune to a mission objective that I've ever heard of. Player picking it up chooses who picks it up same as choosing who fired first in their coordinated shooting or which armor saves they make first.
Looks like I got 1 wrong anyway, Immunity (Total) does not help against Comms Attacks like Spotlight, right?
See here for total immunity and it's interaction with targeted by forward observer https://forum.corvusbelli.com/threads/states-traits-and-immunity-total.40742/#post-424597 tldr it does prevent targeted state
i read it and my tldr is that it does not prevent telemetry. it prevents the targeted state but it does not retroactively change a successful die roll into a failed die roll. In fact, as Mahtamori said, you can only use Immunity if the opponent won the FtF/Normal attack roll (as being affected is a skill requirement that needs to be fulfill first). Telemetry only cares that you win a FtF/Normal roll.
But only from Forward Observer, not from the hacking program Spotlight (which was used in my case), if I understand that thread correctly. Because Spotlight is not a weapon, nor does it use ammunition.
Correct. It is not only Immunity(Total) but a general effect that says Immunity never works against comm attacks with the sole exception of Immunity(game state).
