Opening Salvo + Assault Missiles

By TheRealStarkiller, in Star Wars: Armada Rules Questions

Hi There!

Opening Lets the 2nd player add 2 dice of any color into the dice pool for the first attack.

So if you get the first shot in otherwise red dice only range, and you add 2 black dice, can you trigger the effect of Assault Missiles or general speaking an effect that requires a special color of dice?

Yeah, the dice you add to the attack pool can be any colour and function normally, so can be used for triggering a critical effect.

Cool, thx. I need to try this.

It feels a bit like cheating, though :D

It was the goto red objective card for the 4 x Glad w/ ACM's build for good reason :)

I wonder if this could be a thing for 3 VSD-I + ACM and Screed....

Could be dangerous, though if anybody is so dare and comes with a corvette spam list ...

Corvettes would probably just stay outside of close range.

Or running MM they'd get cancellation at medium range.
