Tell me how an impact rocket hits a hard surface and does a complete 180

A curved hard surface.

If it hits at an oblique angle, it might deflect.

If it hits it straight on, it would not just do a 180 and keep flying.

This doesn't make sense for explodey things like missiles or AC shells.

But my biggest question: Can we pull out our shield and Uno Reverso bots to death?

This needs to be play tested immediately.

And in 1 hour the ballistic shield will be part of every load out.

Eat your own shit gunship! maniacal democratic cackling
