    I'm aware I'm likely being very dense here as it should perhaps be obvious but I assume that Adhesive ammo does nothing to targets with Total Immunity as Adhesive has the Non-lethal trait? By extension this also applies to any attacks with said trait?

    Thanks for indulging me.

    Immunity(Total) says: "The Trooper is completely immune to Weapons or Ammunitions with the Non-Lethal Trait, not suffering their effects, and not requiring a Saving Roll or Guts Roll."

    "Non-Lethal" is the third trait from the end in Jammer's huge list. So Jammer won't do anything to the trooper.

    Edit: Aarrgh. I hate the way Immunity is written. The last bit says:
    This Special Skill does not apply against Comms Attacks, with the sole exception of Immunity (game state).

    That last bit means that Immunity(Total) will still ignore the State:Isolated part.
    Edit: Aaargh. Again. On reading it the their time, that's not what it says after all.

    Because it's a Comms Attack, Immunity(Total) doesn't stop any of the effects of Jammer. Immunity(Total) isn't a subtype of Immunity(game state).
