Weapon damage types, now this is a little odd...

[geoschmo]

As is well documented the engine only and weapon only damage types skip all shields and armor and get straight to the component.

I assumed that the "Only Boarding Parties" and "Only Security Stations" weapons do the same thing, but I was incorrect. They do not skip shields. They do skip armor though.

That's kind of wierd, isn't it?
