In the space combat Sims any fighter that wandered to close to the exhaust trail of a capital ship took damage from engine wash. After beholding the sexiness of the raider and thinking about its massive engine and the huuuge engines of the corvette, is engine wash included in xwing miniatures? Should it be? Seems pretty easy. Would need a "firing" arc though.

As I understand it, most people use a blue wash and then drybrush with lighter blue or white.

That's what you meant, right?

like a leaf on the wind.

We can deal with that when we get movement in three dimensions.

Yeah just because your behind a ship does not mean your on the same plane, you could be above or below.

Height would add little but complications to a rule set that succeeds at making the game fast and simple.

If you added height you'd also have to add pitch and yaw, that way ends in madness.

Hm, could do something like APL but just for the rear end of the base?

Rear arc, range one, one damage. No evade dice.

Just... not... worth... it...
