Poison (X)

Core Rules, p. 45

A weapon with this special rule always wounds on a roll of X as represented next to the rule. Poison weapons use their normal Strength against Vehicles, Aircraft, Drones, Knights, Titans, Automata & Walkers however.

If when comparing the weapons Strength characteristic against the targets Toughness or Armour Value characteristic, the wound roll required is lower than the Poison roll indicated in the brackets or vice-versa, use the lowest required to Wound or Penetrate roll for determining if the weapon inflicts a wound on the target. Poison (X) is not considered a triggered effect (see 1.7.4).
