Re: [HOE] AP-attacks vs. several layers of armor [HOPLER]

Well, I do it that way. I think that the penetrating power of an AP-Round is spent after negating a certain number of AV Levels. As long as there is one "unspent" AP-Level left, light armor will be negated. So IŽd resolve your example like you did it.

Subject: [HOE] AP-attacks vs. several layers of armor [HOPLER]

I brought this up about 2 weeks ago but never got an answer to the actual question (I did get some answers but not to the core one). The [HOPLER] tag is since he wrote Waste Warrior (which introduced the rule that AP-ammo negates soft armor) but I trust that someone at PEG can make sure that the right person sees this.
 
Now for the actual question, this is somewhat modified from the last time, no templar with armor of the saints this time.
 
A guy with a kevlar vest and boiled leather shirt (layered Vest - Shirt - Body) gets hit in the guts with a 3D6-AP2 shot.
How much damage does he suffers?
 
The bullet negates the vest, is the AP then "spent" so the character gets to count the -4 from the leather shirt, or is the round still considered to be a AP-round, thus negating the protection?
