Conner Net and Huge Ships.

By WWHSD, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Here are things that I believe to be true about Huge Ships and Conner Nets.

If a Huge Ship hits a Conner Net both of its sections lose their actions since the ship loses its Perform Action step.

If a Huge Ship hits a Conner Net the tokens would reduce the amount of energy that is generate by the maneuver that is being performed.

I'm not too sure about the damage. Does it get assigned to the section that hit the Conner Net or can it be allocated to either section?

  • Not too sure about losing actions for both sections, although I can't find anything to argue against it, so it might be quite correct.

and yes, I realise it's not an attack

Huge ships with two ship cards have a single perform action step that consists of performing 2 actions - 1 from the fore card's bar, one from the Aft ( huge ship rules page 2)

So yes - both actions would be lost.

Yeah, that's the conclusion I came to as well. :)

However, Keep in mind that FFG has consistently made huge ships immune to every other action loss in the game. They are immune to stress... they can take actions when they overlap other ships (even other huge ships), they don't skip the action step after overlapping obstacles, and so on...

So despite the RAW makes you right, there's a strong RAI hint about making Huge ships also immune to action loss by Conner nets.
