Gruntz small arms versus vehicles are at -2. The Plasma Rifle armament for standard Gruntz units has damage 7 and an AP of 1. Does this weapon still receive the -2 for small arms as well as the +1 for AP (net difference of -1)?
For example a Gruntz armed with Plasma Rifles fires at a vehicle they would have a score of 7(base damage)+1(ap)-2(small arms vs vehicle) = 6
Or does the fact that Plasma Rifles have AP mean that they ignore the normal -2 vs vehicles completely? (damage would then be 8 instead of 6)
Also is power armor affected by AP? I see in the Errata it says it is not but the two pages it references for that both have conflicting information.
Pg 11: "Gruntz and Gruntz Specialists are not affected by the armour piercing ability of the weapon, however Power Armor squads and Vehicle Specialists are impacted by Armour Piercing (AP) weapons.""
Pg 23: "Armour Piercing does not provide a bonus when attacking normal Gruntz, Specialists, or Commanders."
Errata 28: "Confirm AP does not work against Gruntz in PA in the rules for PA. Page 23 / Page 11"

Is this game dead? I asked this question months ago and there's been no response. I guess I'll just have to write my own rulings from here on out.

Good question! For starters, I don't know if the game is dead, but these forums don't get much activity at all, and I don't even think the designer visits here anymore. I've talked to him on FB and he did mention a while back that 2.0 was coming out this year, but followups to that topic have been met with silence. Too bad, I hope it gets revived, these rules are fantastic.
