Some of you wrote "the attack does 0 damage".
But what does 0 damage mean?
Does it mean, that the victim has to roll a save and
if he rolls a 20 he gets one wound?
No, DM 0 is just that - no damage. a roll of "20" is
not[/b] a critical failure when rolling an AR save. Therefore, if a target has 20 AR, and DM is (modified) 1, then a 20 fails (20-1=19). However, if a model has an AR of 21, that same DM 1 can cause
no damage, so there is no need to roll (21-1=20; even rolling a 20 would save).
If the weapons DM winds up being 0, then there is no chance to cause damage, even against an AR of 0 (probably PFC Joe's AR on Saturday morning after a good (bad?) Friday night -

).
