Monolith and auto penetrating and auto glancing shots

Is a monolith affected by weapons that auto penetrate and auto glance? I know that the Eldar have some weapons like that - D-Cannons maybe? - and I know that Breath of Chaos will auto glance on a 4+ - but does living metal protect against this?

Yup, meaning KILL those chaos flamers!!! I had the same army surprise me with that 4+ auto glance...bah! I quickly learned once those things land...they're my next target!

If you'd like to know my surprise, he landed 6" from one of his marker squads to assure accuracy of his deep strike. I had just pulled a squad of 14 warriors through next to the monolith. So his 3 flamers popped the template BARELY touching the lith, and hitting all 14 warriors (+res orb lord). My god that was a painful 3 flamers!!! Luckily the lith got shaken, stunned results! :)

Thanks for clearing that up. I had told someone the other day that it was immune to those things (first game playing with a monolith) and I wanted to double check.

The monolith entry in the codex is confusing. Under living metal in there it says that powerfists do not get extra dice but in the new FAQ it says they do.
