{{Roll}}
*After a successful attack using AP Ammunition, the target must make a ''[[Saving Roll]]'' per impact suffered, using half his ''[[ARM]]'' or ''[[BTS]]'' value (''[[ARM/]]''2 or ''[[BTS]]''/2) as specified by the weapon being used. 
{{effects}}
*AP Ammunition reduces the ''[[ARM]]'' or ''[[BTS]]'' value of its target to half of its original value, rounding up. Consequently, any ''[[ARM]]'' or ''[[BTS]]'' above 0 cannot be reduced below 1. 
*Each ''[[Saving Roll]]'' failed against AP Ammunition causes the target to lose one point from his ''[[Wounds]]/[[STR]]'' Attribute.
*''[[Critical]]'' hits with AP Ammunition cause the targets to make an additional ''[[Saving Roll]]'', applying their halved ''[[ARM]]'' or ''[[BTS]]'' value.
