Hi all! On page 45, it states that "If a weapon is partially blocked by the shield, but has leftover shield damage remaining, it counts as a non-penatrating hit that struck the hull.
I always took this to mean that half the remaining sheild damage was applied to the hull and no crit. (Is that correct? }
Ex. CA 1 has 2 shields left in its front arc. A single Turbo Laser hits the CA in the front arc. Does it do 2 hull points of damage (Turbo Laser: 6 Shield Damage = 2 to sheilds, 4 remaining cut in half = 2 hull points). Or do you do 1/2 of the Hull Damage rating of the Turbo Laser which would be 2 (4 H Damage cut in half).
Again, I just assumed it was the first example but wanted to make sure.
Thanks!
