    Norikas and Ko Dali are 1 VITA models with Protheion and no Immunity (Shock). Instead they have Immunity (ARM). This gives them a weird and inconsistent vulnerability to Viral weapons and the Silenced Pistol (both are Shock vs. BTS) until they acquire a Power Up token and increase their VITA stat to 2. It's especially relevant for Nourikas because it interacts very poorly with his NWI.

    Examples:
    • At the start of the game, if Nourikas is hit by a Viral Rifle, he will bypass NWI and go straight to dead
    • If Nourikas eats a model, he will gain a power up token and have 2 VITA. Now if he fails two saves he will be at NWI state instead of dead.
    • If Nourikas eats a model he'll gain a Power Up token and be at 2 VITA. If he then takes a single wound, he'll have 1 wound marker and a Power Up token. A common play pattern would be to remove the Power Up instead of marking a wound. This is incorrect! In his current state he has 2 VITA and is therefore not vulnerable to Shock, even though he's only got 1 effective wound remaining, unlike at the start of the game.
    • If Nourikas takes one wound (not Viral) and enters NWI, he will then have to eat two wounds worth in order to become fully immune to shock. The first will merely cancel the existing wound marker, and the second will give him a Power Up token, raising his VITA stat to 2.
    Summary:

    Please give Nourikas and Ko Dali Immunity (Shock) so that their interaction with ammo types is consistent across the entire course of a game.

    Other Protheion models:
    • Sheskiin has 2 VITA and is therefore inherently immune to Shock
    • Calibans have Immunity (Shock)
    • Umbra Samaritans have Immunity (Shock)
