Quote:I must have worded the Move poorly, because I had mentioned the damage was "sub-par at best" earlier on, but when I said "deals its normal damage" later on, it must not have been clear that I meant the normal, sub-par damage. But why, exactly, would I need Phasing? Is this poor wording on my part again? The acid coating is meant to burn a hole through the obstacle, not bypass it exactly. In a similar way to, say, a high damage Move that is able to break walls. Would it be better if I put in: "The Acid-coating on each projectile does nothing to an actual opponent, but it lends the round exactly enough extra damage to punch a bullet-sized hole in an obstacle"?
Ahh. So that's what you meant. Yeah, you can have something like that. But it won't always go through 10cm of shield moves. Natural terrain, sure. With it being weakened depending on how much it shoots through. Normal shot not going through anything would be normal damage for the gun. A shot going through almost 1m of steel would be very weakened. How's that? (With the acid not helping you actually shoot through people)
Sorry, your wording put me under the impression you were trying to bypass shield moves or something like that - since you clarified it didn't work for an SD, but not a normal defensive move.

Your other comments are coolio. And, yeah, your clones don't need area attack.
