Thermal Energy and Exotic Weapons Damage

THE SHORT VERSION

Large irregular holes surrounded by orange, yellow and white suggest still-molten armour after a plasma or melta strike. The same cut openings become chemical damage when glossy green slime replaces the heat glow. A final Tyranid example erodes a bulkhead and melts foam to convey an alien bio-weapon. These examples extend the preceding realistic impacts into effects specific to the setting.
