Hitting with B5 Beams

After waiting far too long to get my gubby little hands on a copy of the
EarthForce Sourcebook, I finally have.

I like it.  Simple.  Very FT-like which will make it easier to get my
friends into.

I have a question about the beam weapons though.  I noticed that you
don't
need to roll-to-hit with them.	You simply roll a D6 and subtract the
range
mods.  Is this right?  At 6MU and less you auto hit with the suckers? 
Wow.
If there is no to-hit roll (maybe Jon meant there to be and it got left
out)
then these are truely awesome weapons.
