A Drakh ship has GEG 3. I get 2 hits on it with a single-damage weapon, one of them causes a crit. The crit is rolled as a 3-6 (+3 damage, +4 crew). What is the damage caused?
a) 4 damage and 5 crew. The non-crit is absorbed by the GEG. But the hit that caused a critical does its normal 1 damage and 1 crew, plus the 3 damage and 4 crew "extras" from the crit.
b) 3 damage and 4 crew. The non-crit is absorbed by the GEG, and so is the normal damage from the crit. The only damage getting through the GEG is from the extra effects of criticals.
