Tiny Sized Swarm Traits and Weapon Damage (bludgeoning)


Rules Questions


Here is the swarm trait rules;

Swarm Traits: A swarm has no clear front or back and no discernable anatomy, so it is not subject to critical hits or flanking. A swarm made up of Tiny creatures takes half damage from slashing and piercing weapons. A swarm composed of Fine or Diminutive creatures is immune to all weapon damage.

QUESTION: What about a swarm that is tiny (rat swarm) and a monk is doing bludgeoning (b) damage (unarmed strike) or a fighter is using a heavy mace (b)? Is that full damage because it's not piercing or slashing (see rule above) and the swarm is tiny not sized fine of diminutive?


Yes.
