Me and a friend were discussing a rule the other day, and since I ordered a model where this might be an issue I thought better to get it cleared before I start using that model.
I tried searching both on the forum and using Googles "site:"-option but I couldn't find anything related, so I hope this is a new one.
If you have an ability that affects you when a construct is involved, but you don't actually target that construct, can it be negated via Perfect Machine?
The example that brought it up is a Freikorps Trapper vs Ramos. The Trapper get's on damage when targeting beasts or constructs with his rifle.
My friend argued that because he needs to target a construct, and Ramos can ignore being a construct, the trapper can't get the bonus. But I read it more as this is an effect on the trapper that doesn't target Ramos in any way, therefore Ramos cannot ignore it. I don't read it as Ramos stops being a construct, he can just chose to ignore certain effects that happen to target them, and the Trapper's effect targets the Trapper himself, not Ramos.
