Does anyone know if the Meson Screen Penetration Table was ever composed?It's missing from the Combat Section of the HG3 pdf & it is kinda' critical.

A 'Tigress' would have about a 69% chance of getting hit by a Class 'T' (TL15 max) meson spinal after rolling for basic 'to hit' & config penetration (5+ for each) &, if the meson screen is penetrated, the HG3 rules mandate no less than NINE(!) damage rolls on EACH of the two damage tables that a meson gun uses (18 rolls total!). Now, you do get a +DM = (screen factor), which is 9 @ Tl15, on the damage tables, but 18 damage rolls is pretty much gonna' kill any ship.

CT HG had the same problem.

Meson guns were so deadly & so accurate, even with max screen factor (9 @ TL15), that I found I had to 'jury-rig' some rules mods in order to play a game w/ ships that would last very long once the meson guns opened up.
