Is this the reason why melee combat is prevalent in mobile suit combat in iron blooded orphans.
Iron blooded orphans nano laminate armor.
Explosive class weapons and non beam class weapons with the b tag however instead temporarily gain the p tag.
The nano laminate armor that covers mobile suits makes firearms unable to score decisive hits.
Guess they didn t tell the developers about the beam thing.
This makes me believe that nano laminate armor is mostly heat resistant which means it would take multiple strikes from a beam weapon to break through it.
This defensive paint forms a multilayer molecular arrangement capable of handling impact from the outside but it can break or peel off requiring repainting.
However remember that the whole point of armor is to protect the frame and while the armor is covered in nano laminate the frame is not and attacking a heavily armored unit in joint sections is the best way to take it down.
Nano laminate armor offers 50 bonus damage reduction against physical attacks but does nothing to beam weapons.
Nano laminate armour passive 20 pts ranged weapons used in a shoot or aimed shot action against this unit temporarily lose the p tag if they are beam class weapons or not within 6 of this unit.
All a projectile does is shaving off a small piece of it interesting.
Nanolaminate armor a special metal paint that reacts to ahab particles is vapor deposited onto the surface of the armor of mobile suits and ships.
