			022 \|\| Certain underhanded monsters (usually the tentacled ones and witches, or, worst case, tentacled witches) will use attacks based on Special damage, that usually also destroy armor.

All chem weapons cause armor damage equal to 0-20% of their Power, before armor's defense is even considered, unless otherwise stated in the Pedia. This makes subsequent shots more effective. The effect stacks with armor damage caused by any penetrating hits, if applicable. Chem also causes moderate Morale damage.		023 \|\| Chem can melt your opponent right out of their armor.

Additional fire hit is dealt every turn the target is burning (which can last up to 5 turns). Fire damage never deals Fatal Wounds. Some enemies might be immune to fire, but those who aren't, will eventually succumb to it - especially since Flamers cause multiple hits.		080 \|\| Do not underestimate fire, as it ignores all normal armor, no matter how thick, and causes massive Morale loss.

	'''Daze''' - Stun damage. Knocks enemies unconscious. With OpenXcom Extended, the waters become a bit more muddied here, as weapons can have a primary damage type and secondary damage effects. For example, the Handle is primary Daze/Stun with secondary lethal effects. This means that as damage scales up with your strong gals, you may sometimes kill a target you were trying to stun with a handle. Also, some targets are immune to Daze/Stun damage. Another mechanic in OXCE allows other weapons that are designed for incapacitating enemies. These are often listed as "Plasma" damage in the Bootypedia, but they have extremely minor lethal damage and 4x stun damage. These are often later in the game.		<br>'''Daze''' - Stun damage.

You can see this in your own gal's base stats. Does stun damage over time. Now, throw in OXCE mixes on assorted weapons as mentioned above in Daze, and you can get Smoke type weapons that also do significant Lethal damage (to health) or pain (often to Morale) or even to energy and time units.

	'''Plasma''' - Plasma from vanilla. " sometimes plasma damage is stun (cattle prod, tazogun?)" - See explanation in Daze above. Most enemies will respond to doses of plasma as very few are resistant to it. However, access to good plasma weapons for the player can be fairly limited for sometime.
