AMMO & ARMOR

WARDOGS AMMO EXPLAINED

FMJ, AP OR HP?

There is no universally best ammo. The right choice depends on what the bullet hits.

CHOOSE FOR THE TARGET, NOT THE LABEL.

FMJ

FMJ is a balanced reference point when comparing ammunition. Consider it alongside your weapon and the target, rather than treating the label as a universal answer.

FMJBALANCED CHOICEA general starting point. Judge it with the weapon and target in mind.

APARMOR PROBLEMConsider it when target protection is central to the engagement.

HPFLESH PROBLEMA flesh-focused option, with a trade-off to weigh against protection.

AP

AP is worth evaluating when target protection is part of the problem. Its usefulness depends on the target and the weapon firing it.

ARMOR IN THE EQUATIONCheck the protected target, not just the ammo name.

HP

HP is a flesh-focused option to consider when protection is less central. Weigh its trade-off against armor instead of assuming it is best in every fight.

FLESH IN THE EQUATIONTarget protection still matters to the choice.

ARMOR CHANGES THE QUESTION

A result that looks strongest against an unprotected target may not remain the best choice against armor. Compare the outcome for the target you expect to face.

BEST DAMAGE ≠ BEST RESULT

ARMOR CAN CHANGE WHICH AMMO MAKES SENSE

HIT ZONE MATTERS

Where a shot lands can change the result. Read the ammunition choice together with the hit zone and the target’s protection.

HEADHit location changes the outcome.

CHESTProtection can change the calculation.

OTHER HIT ZONESDo not assume every hit behaves alike.

WEAPON + AMMO

The same ammo type should not be judged in isolation. The weapon using it and the target receiving it are both part of the result.

THREE QUESTIONS

Before choosing a type, make the target and weapon part of the decision.

WHAT AM I SHOOTING?IS THE TARGET PROTECTED?WHAT DOES MY WEAPON DO WITH THIS AMMO?

NO AMMO TYPE WINS EVERY FIGHT.
Choose for the target, then test the result.
