RE: KV Railguns vs Armour (NSS system) Pt1/2

Because that means you would automatically to maximum damage when the
to-hit roll is 6.  If anything, it would need to be a reverse damage
chart when using 1 roll for hits & damage (ie: 2+=3pts, 4+=2pts etc)
otherwise it's just a standard beam weapon by another name.  Not very
alien at all.

Why not just use the "to hit" roll ans the damage roll as well, and omit
a
step?
