Dirtside SLAMs

On page 9 of the Dirtside rules, it states that SLAMs "cannot be 'spoofed' by
ECM or Stealth systems."

Does this mean that the defender's die type against a SLAM attack is the Basic
signature? I could not find any other mention of this in the rulebook. We have
been using effective signature, but a clarification would be helpful.

Yes, since a slam is just another direct fire weapon that uses a firecon to
aim.

Interesting! I have always assumed that stealth was effective against SLAMs.
This seems to imply that it rolls against the basic signature. The question
really boils down to "is the text on pages eight and nine to be considered
'fluff' or rules?"

I too would like clarification.

Are SLAM systems affected by stealth?
