GR-75 Reactor Leak

By eagletsi111, in X-Wing Rules Questions

So we played our 2nd GR-75 game.

Question: So we got a reactor leak critical on our Gr-75.

Reactor Leak: When you execute a Manuever, reduce the amount of energy you gain by 1 (to a minimum of zero)

However, we were playing hoth evacuation. And we just kept moving 4, so we basically ignored this card and just didn't generate any energy.

My question is a reactor leak is big and our enemies ask me to post because it just appeared wrong that we could move 4 with the reactor leaking.

What does everyone think?

You can still move four. But if you did a 3 you would get no energy. Might as well do a four

Doesn't it seem weird you could have an engine reactor leak and still go 4?

Maybe it does. Maybe it does not. That's a technical or fluff discussion. Not a rules discussion.

The rules are clear: You receive one less energy. That is all that happens. No additional limitations mentioned.
