Pen Question

[mpc2163]

I'm planning out a game to run at Rockcon and I have a question about armor penetration rolls. If a heavy turbo laser (D6 pen) hits an unshielded ship with armor 6 or higher, does it automatically get a non-pen hit at 1/2 damage? That's what I'm assuming since there's nothing else written about it. I've got the Naval Thunder penetration stuff running through my head right now too so I may have gotten them both mixed up a bit...

That's how I always play it.

You notice that most weapons are good against shields or armor, not both.
