So in the resolution of death part of the test rules models go through phases (i dont have my book with me now but its something like this..)

When all boxes are filled in for a model it becomes boxxed then destroyed.
However it says that when a jack has all of its boxes filled it gets wrecked.

My question is: Are jacks considered to also go through the Boxed and Destroyed phases like other models or are they just wrecked.

If they are never Destroyed then things like E Butcher's feat wont work when a jack dies in his control radii.

Warjacks are considered models, so I'd say they do both. When one's damage is completely filled, it becomes Wrecked and Disabled, then Boxed, and finally Destroyed.

A warjack should go through both the boxed and destroyed steps as well as being wrecked. However, wrecked and disabled have the same trigger which at first glance appears to make the warjack bypass boxed and destroyed.

A strict reading would indicate that the Warjack would have all of its boxes marked, thereby triggering the disabled and wrecked triggers simultaneously. No matter which you resolve first, the wrecked mechanic would remove the warjack from the table before the boxed and destroyed steps occur. I'm almost 100% certain that that is not intended though.

This looks like something that should be submitted to Privateer so they can clean up the language.
