    adhesive is non-letal, so shock will not take any effect

    Non-Lethal. This weapon or piece of Equipment utilizes a Type of Ammunition that does not cause Damage, or does not require its target to make ARM or BTS Rolls when hit.

    Shock Special Ammunition
    Roll

    After a successful attack using Shock Special Ammunition, the target must make an ARM Roll.

    Effects
    • Each ARM Roll failed against Shock Special Ammunition causes the target to lose one point from his Wounds/STR Attribute.
    • If the target has a Wounds Attribute of 1 on his profile and fails an ARM Roll against Shock Special Ammunition, then he enters the Dead state directly, bypassing the Unconscious state.
    • This specific special effect does not apply to:
      • Units whose Wounds Attribute is higher than 1 on their profile (such as Heavy Infantry).
      • Troopers who, during the course of the game, increased their Wounds Attribute above 1.
      • Units with a Structure (STR) Attribute instead of a Wounds Attribute, such as Remotes, TAGs, Vehicles, etc. Against these, Shock Special Ammunition has the same effects as Normal Ammunition.

    Riotstopper uses Adhesive ammo, which forces a PH-6 roll on the target and does not deal damage. There is nothing in the rules that would make Shock ammo Non-Lethal.

    Strictly by RAW I would say that Marksmanship on a Riotstopper would make it Adhesive+Shock, forcing a PH-6 vs IMM-2 and an ARM vs a wound on hit.

    EDIT: I lied.
    MARKSMANSHIP LEVEL 1 AUTOMATIC SKILL
    Optional.
    REQUIREMENTS
    The user may only benefit from this Special Skill when he declares a BS Attack.

    EFFECTS
    • In addition to their usual Ammunition, all BS Weapons wielded by the user have Shock Special Ammunition.
    • The benefits of Shock Special Ammunition granted by Marksmanship are added to any other Special Ammunitions employed by the BS Weapon.
    • However, these benefits do not apply to BS Weapons with any of these Traits: Throwing Weapon, Technical Weapon,and Non-Lethal.
    The last bullet point proves me wrong, so Armihaul is correct. Marksmanship does not work with Non-Lethal weapons.

    Riotstopper (the weapon) is Non-Lethal, ammo type it uses is irrelevant.

    (Edit; sorry, just noted the last edited line)
