In ranged combat a BM can nullify a SHW, that is why on a titan you
should never go without a HW battery (I tried once, 3 Death rays on a
reaver, and after a round of firing, I had 4 BMs and no chance of firing.
Do BMs count against you in a firefight?

When you dream there are no rules, people can fly, anything can happen.
Sometimes, there's a moment as you're waking, that you become aware of
the real world around you, but you're still dreaming. 
You may think you can fly, but you better not try it
