 For each two success rolled on the Resistance test with Armour Dice, stage the damage down by one level, e.g. from Serious to Moderate.  If the damage is staged down from light to nothing the attack is stopped by the targets armour (skip remaining combat steps).

 '' The security guard Whisper just shot tries to dodge. He rolls one success.  The means Whispers highest dice roll (the 6) is removed. Since Whispers next highest dice is a 5 he only hit with 4 bullets now. ''
-When determining scatter for auto fire, use the following rules. If the attacker gets four or more successes the shot does not scatter. This is determined for each individual bullet. In the above example whisper obtained 4 successes with the first three rounds so they dont scatter and would hit the default aim point. He only scored two successes for the 4th round, which means that bullet scatters two hexes (as per Table 2: Scatter). The location to which the attack scatters becomes the new aim point for determining further scatter.
