Is armored shell a armor save or invul save? Just played my buddy's nidz for the first time tonight and his tyrant was a beast but I think we were playing it as an invul save. My PK attacks should not have gotten saves.

Correct, it just boosts his 3+ armor save to a 2+ armor save. Power weapons still ignore it

Of course they do but I'm the moron that didn't know his rules that PKs are power weapons cause it's in the freaking name. I'm an idiot. Explains why his tyrant was able to chop down my like 25 strong boyz unit with nob/PK and warboss with PK. The power that reduces WS to 1 did not help but was still able to land some PK hits. Was a fun game though ended up with him with 1 wound and taking on my 4 man loota squad and barely winning, would have been dead if I learned to read.
