Look at the picture. Seems to suggest Advanced Homing Missiles will probably be a 360 degree shot.

And then I look at the art on Anti-Pursuit Lasers and decide we should probably just wait for the spoiler before we start using card art (from not even the card we're speculating about) to guess at abilities.

Who/what/where is read line in the article?

The name of the pilot whose card is on top.

Fair enough, but it's an interesting coincidence.

Counterpoint: Redline is shooting missiles forward, since that's the direction all four of the ordnance bays face. (I can't really make out the cockpit, but either there are four very symmetric shadows or the ordnance bays are visible in the card image. Also, note the lack of visible bomb slides.)

Hmm... I don't know what made me think it was backwards, you are probably right. I must have had backwards missiles on the brain.
