        Effectively each 'save' is like a regular hit (ie if you get 6 hits
treat it like 6 las cannon hits - if theres void shields up each hit knocks
down a shield, once the shields are gone each hit scatters (if against a titan
) seperately and saves are made seperately. Forgive me if Im misinterpreting
the motivation behind your question but it doest ignore void shields or get hits
against the titans AND drop shields (unless you get more hits than shields in
which case the shields are gone and the excess hits are resolved normally :) )

        There are plenty of harsh and / or unjustified rulings. Hell theres
often contradictory rulings. Welcome to the wonderful world of GW.
