Dread lords/non-combat ships ignore -2 speed penalty?

This may have been a carry over from DA, but I never noticed it there.

I put up military bases and added the module for -2 speed on enemy ships. 
It slows military ships, but not any Dread Lord nor non-combat ships.  Unfortunately that also means the Spore ships get through too.

Is this normal?  I found this issue on the first campaign map.
