Vehicle Damage question

[ShadowRaptor]

To Master Steve Long:

 

I was wondering this after reading some of Ultimate Vehicle and I want to make sure I understand it because the characters are going to be running from a vehicle in the first encounter (god I really hope they don't play this like its d&d and think that they can destroy it ).

 

I know that Vehicles have Def and Body. Def soaks the damage inflicted and Body is basically their health points, like for characters. It has no Stun value. When a Vehicle gets hit by an attack, it takes ONLY Body damage and the Stun is ignored, right? Then, it only takes Body damage if the total Body is higher than the DEF value the vehicle has, right?

[Steve Long]

Correct on both counts. Vehicles don't take STUN (unless, I suppose, you built some bizarre living vehicle using a fusion of the rules for regular characters and Vehicles), and you have to exceed their DEF to do BODY damage to 'em.
