−	When a TSM volley hits a hex, or unit in a hex, fill that hex with the gas up to two levels above the underlying terrain. For visibility purposes, treat the smoke as Heavy Smoke. Any 'Mech with exposed internal structure also mounting Prototype [[Triple Strength Myomer]] which has spent a turn in the gas, receives a forced critical hit, which is resolved as normal. This type of critical hit cannot roll a head/limb blown off critical hit. A direct missile impact into an exposed area of the 'Mech adds an additional 6 damage to the location hit if the 'Mech mounts TSM for each unarmored location struck by the volley. The 'Mech will also sustain 6 damage to unarmored locations when entering a gas covered hex.<ref name=IOp104 />
