Default [Spaceships] Multiples of 10% of dHP

According to page 34 of Spaceships, every multiple of 10% of basic dHP taken as damage causes the vessel to suffer one system damage roll. This does not seem to appear anywhere in the spaceship combat rules. Is this a leftover rule that was changed? Or does it appear, and I haven't found it?

The damage section of Spaceship just says that from 10% to 50% damage disables a system, and 50%+ destroys it. There appears to be nothing else about multiples of 10% damage.

It's a previously unnoticed one-word typo. The word "Each" should be the word "A". You can report it to errata if you liked.

Thanks for the reply, David.

"When using the space combat rules, a multiple of 10% of dHP that is lost due to penetrating damage causes the vessel to suffer one system damage roll."

Still seems rather strange, but I'll report it.
