Nashta Pup and Stress

By Red Castle, in X-Wing Rules Questions

I've looked everywhere but didn't find an answer.

If the Hound's Tooth was stressed when it gets destroyed, does the Nashta Pup keeps the stress token or not when it deploys?

We played it that yes yesterday, but I was not sure of the call. Since I was the one with the Pup, I decided to call it against me (keep the stress) and check later.

Nope. Nothing transfers, not the damage cards like stunned pilot, not the ept.

Just the pilot ability and th printed pilot skill on the ship card.

That's what I thought.

But since I was not 100% sure, I decided to rule against me. The drawback of being the rule lawyer of the group: When in doubt, go against yourself or be accused of cheating if you were wrong. :P

I can't think of any rules reason that anyone'd think the Pup spawns stressed if the Tooth is stressed. The Tooth doesn't turn into the Pup, it launches the Pup, a separate ship, and then blows up.

The Nashtah Pup is a separate ship that copies the pilot skill and pilot ability of the ship equipped with Hound's Tooth.
