In a recent game I played, a unit of infantry of mine and a vehicle were assaulted by an opposing infantry unit, I received 3 wounds onto my infantry, and 4 glancing/ penetrating damage rolls on the vehicle. I lost combat do to the 3 wounds; however I was then told that the 4 vehicle damage rolls also would lower my leadership as well. I rolled a 4 so I would have to fall back according to this 'ruling'. I attempted to challenge this but multiple experienced players agreed with this logic.

After searching through the RaW this can not be true because you can't wound a vehicle and only wounds lower your leadership value (in this case.) How do you feel this is intended to play out?

If the vehicle wasn't actually fighting in the combat, it is ignored for Combat Resolution purposes (page 63: "Combat Results")

If the vehicle was a walker and was involved in the combat, then glancing or penetrating hits are counted as wounds (page 73: "Walkers and Assaults")

Gotcha. It was a wave serpent so that clears things up. Thanks!
