This leads to several interesting details. Though improbably, it is possible for a DNR roll to decrease this damage to a survivable level. Since it is also simply just a lot of damage, it also means that units with a second forms may be able to survive the attack.
If the a unit took only 15 points of damage while attacking you, it is more likely that they succeeded on the MR check versus the Medusa effect and instead took damage from another effect, such as charged body, which is auto-cast on any unit wearing copper plate.

Yes, I know about this. I once saw a feebleminded sphinx with 1400 hp survive a soul slay and lose around 1000 hp. But, here the debug log actually said 990 damage, so that's it.
There was no other effect that could have made damage to the Vanadrott. He had all possible resistances and the only other damage dealing thingy on my AQ was a single lightning swarm attack.
