Ships with the same PS movement and combat order

By Bjorn Rockfist, in X-Wing Rules Questions

I know I have seen it just can't remember where it is in print. If a player has multiple ships with the same PS they can decide each turn what order they move and shoot. I am trying to find where it says it for a friend, and I can't.

Pg 10 core rulebook for combat:

"If a single player owns multiple ships with the same pilot skill value, he may resolve their attacks in the order of his choosing."

looking for the one on movement

Edit: can't find the exact place in the rulebook where it says you can activate ships of the same PS in any order, but that is 100% how it works.

TY. I knew that was the right way it worked. Friend just had an opponent arguing the fact LOL.

Interesting - how did he think it worked? You had to assign them a number and activate them in the same order every round? Don't think I've heard of anyone arguing that rule, but it's strange that it can't seem to be located in the rules or faq...

Works the same for abilities that trigger at the same time. The player gets to choose the order.

I'm also wondering how it would work if you don't get to choose the order of your own stuff that is all going off at the same time. Does that friend think HE should get to choose the order you move and shoot?

Maybe it's the guy playing at the next table?
