Heya,

The rules are a little unclear to me as to when I am able to use the hardpoint attachments on the CR90.

Am I able to fire them during the “Use energy” step during the energy phase?

“Use Energy: The huge ship may use one or more of its Upgrade

cards or Damage cards with the “Energy:” header. Each card with this

header can be used only once per round.”

Both quad cannons and single laser cannons have the “Attack (energy):” header going on so I’m wondering if that’s the same as “Energy:” … Not sure if the “Attack (energy):” header is simply a reminder that these attacks use energy.

Or am I able to fire them during the combat phase?

“During the Combat phase, each huge ship may perform one attack with its

primary weapon and may perform one attack with each of its secondary

weapons.”

Or do I have a choice as to what phase I use them in?

Thanks!

Hard points are secondary weapons. They fire just like any other secondary weapons except huge ships get to fire all of their weapons.

Attack (energy) just means you need energy to fire, just like Attack (target lock) means you require a target lock to attack.

Ah, okay, that makes much more sense.

Thanks for the timely response
