I think that we should have both resistances AND Immunities.

Resistances should grant +4 arm vs fire/cold/corrosion damage rolls(and change corrosion to be a D3 damage roll, with resistance making it D3-2, so you only take 1 damage 1/3 of the time)

Lots of things which currently have immunities should have them switched to resistances.

Protectorate Reckoner Chassis: Resistant to fire

Feora and Malakus: immune to fire, resistant to cold

Cleansers: resistant to fire

Azrael: resistant to fire

Pyre/Slag/Winter Trolls: resistant to fire/corrosion/cold

Fire Eaters: resistant to fire

That's... complicated.

Not really. If we added resistances to the game corrosion would have to be changed because you either take 1 damage or you don't.

It's certainly no more complicated than other stuff. And I would argue its a good level of complexity.

I kinda hoped that in the change to Mk3 that they would have added a new elemental resistance which is somewhere between the flat out immunity and full effects/damage, Example: Electrical Resistance: Electric damage rolls against this model roll one less dice.

Its less all or nothing and fairly easy from a mechanic point of view.
