Thanks to J.E. Sawyer, I've been able to make a mod that fixes one of my few pet peeves with New Vegas. That is, the fact that damage threshold allows some damage through even when the weapon doesn't exceed the threshold. Well not any more. Now, those Brotherhood guys are scary. And giant radscorpions are even scarier!

Basically, this mod sets minimum weapon damage to zero. Before, it was possible to kill a power-armored enemy with a 9mm SMG, if you were willing to accept that you'll only do ~3 damage per shot. Now, it's completely impossible to defeat armored foes with weapons that don't exceed the target's DT. Just like it was back in Fallout 1 and 2. I suggest using AP ammo and hoping for crits. Or running the hell away. :3

Bravo, good sir. I remember when I got the power armor in the original Fallout. Talk about one man army, laser riffles and gatling gun shots glanced right off.
