Rouge says you can move and shoot. A ship with a Squadron Command can allow a Squadron to shoot then move or move then shoot. So are the uses of Rouge Squadrons supposed to allow both a move and shoot or shoot and move as well, or does the literal read of the card apply and you may only move and shoot?
"That is, most squadrons can't do both. The Rogues and Villains Expansion Pack, however, introduces squadrons with the Rogue keyword, and these squadrons can both move and attack during the squadron phase, as though they had been activated by the squadron command."
That's what it says in the preview...while we all know they aren't always accurate, I tend to believe they are accurate in this case. So yes, move/shoot or shoot/move.
Edited by ReirycThe cards say move and attack during the squadron phase, see Dash Rendar on the "A Few Surprises" page.
Nothing about as if they had been activated via a command. Which is why I am not too sure here, what you say seems reasonable but the card is open to a more literal reading and therefore not perfectly clear.

The first paragraph in my response is a cut and paste from the rogue preview.

Take a look at the paragraph just to the left of the dash card.
Edited by ReirycI would lean towards that being the intent of the Rouge keyword and for as long as that article remains available you could argue away a more literal reading. But read the tournament rules, I find myself asking would it stay that way?
Read this from the preview as well....
"Such threats only serve to highlight the importance of your fighter squadrons, and they give the Rebellion all the more reason to counter enemy fighters with their own Rogue ace, Han Solo. Aboard his Millennium Falcon, Han Solo boasts the Rogue keyword, as well as the new Grit keyword. Not only can he activate on his own each squadron phase, but he can fly away from engagements, so long as he's not engaged by more than a single squadron. That means that even if your opponent sends two squadrons to engage the Falcon, hoping to keep him from a wing of TIE Bomber Squadrons, Han Solo can still blast through one of those squadrons, ignore the other, and move to engage the bombers."
He is shooting and moving in the last sentence and the whole paragraph talks about rogue keyword in the squadron phase.
I do understand what you're saying. Ask ffg to get a clarification, but I'm pretty confident rogue is move/shoot, shoot/move... Used in either order
If it said move then shoot you would have a case. What it does say though is move and shoot. That doesn't denote a specific order, just that you can do both things.

I was about to mention this very thing. Thanks for saving my time.
