Noob Questions

By Garnazul, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Hello,

I have been playing X-Wing for a few months now and I am very enthusiastic player.

I have most of the imperial starfighters, but still waiting for wave IV to arrive here.

The questions:

With Soontir Fell's ability: when is stressed does he receive a stress token and a focus token. Or is it just a single focus that he receives?

With sensor jammer, the card says: When defending, you may change 1 of the attacker's 'hit' result to a 'eye' result. The attacker cannot reroll the die with the changed result.

Can the attacker use a focus token instead?

I don't think so because of the order: attack/ modify, defend/ modify. However, I'm not sure.

Couldn't find it in the X-Wing FAQ.

Hope you guys can help me out.

Many Thanks!

Soontirs abillity triggers upon receiving a stress token, so he would get both the stress nad the focus. If he doesn't get the stres token he gets no focus either.

Attackar can use focus to change a jamed dice back to a hit. You got the order slightly wrong.

Roll attack dice

Defender modify

Attacker modify

Roll evade dice

Attacker modify

Defender modify

Great!

Thanks a lot!

With Soontir Fell's ability: when is stressed does he receive a stress token and a focus token. Or is it just a single focus that he receives?

Stress AND Focus.

It is important to note that if something intercepts the receiving of the Stress token, he does not receive the Focus token either.

With sensor jammer, the card says: When defending, you may change 1 of the attacker's 'hit' result to a 'eye' result. The attacker cannot reroll the die with the changed result.

Can the attacker use a focus token instead?

Yes. Focus Tokens directly alter the result, and are not considered re-rolls.

The order of Attack operations is:

  1. Attack is declared
  2. Weapon is declared
  3. Attacker rolls Red Dice
    1. Defender modifies Red Dice
    2. Attacker modifies Red Dice
  4. Defender rolls Green Dice
    1. Attacker modifies Green Dice
    2. Defender modifies Green Dice
  5. [squiggly] results cancel [boom] results
  6. [squiggly] results cancel [KABLAM] results
  7. Ships equipped with Draw Their Fire may pull an uncanceled [KABLAM] hit now.
  8. [boom] results strip Shield Tokens
  9. [KABLAM] results strip Shield Tokens
  10. Deal 1 Face-down Damage Card for each remaining [boom] result
  11. Deal 1 Face-up Damage Card for each remaining [KABLAM] result

If anything happens on Step 7-11, the defender is considered "Hit".
