Huge ship primary weapons

By FellowPT, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Hi all, I'm preparing for my first epic tournament and I really want to run my raider though I've never played with it. I'm reading up on the rules and have a question.

For the Tantive IV and Raider can only the fore section perform a primary attack or can the aft sections perform them as well? I know you're only allowed 1 primary attack per turn but not sure if both sections are capable of performing a primary attack.

Thanks!

Only the fore section has the primary

Only the fore section has the primary. There was an epic thread about this a few months ago where people argued about it, but it was finally answered by one of the developers that the intended rule is that only the fore card has an attack value printed on it, so only the fore section can attack with the primary.

Thank you for the help

Don't forget, "spend two energy and get another primary weapon attack".

Energy is the key to playing them. Let you in on a little secret if you have the CR-90 as well (or proxy). Two engineering teams...

...can't be equipped to the same ship, because it's a limited upgrade. ;)

Haha. Dang, and I thought I was so clever.
