Uh.. oh... eh.. oops. That's what happens when an important rule like that is hidden away in the back of the book instead of in the main rules section where it belongs. :-)
One consequence of this is that those who dare take a chance on rolling stand to lose even more. Hmmm...
Another consequence is that there's a big difference between magical and mundane augmentations, since the latter can't get the reduced resistance. Hmmm...
So, in summary: hmmm... ;-)
