Attanni Mindlink and Palob Godalhi

By Adienpryde, in X-Wing Rules Questions

With Palob's ability to steal a focus token from an enemy ship and assign it to himself that if he had a mind link, he would also assign one to all his friends with mind links also?

Yes, as long as the other ships don't already have a focus. Palob's ability specifies that the token is assigned to him, which triggers Attani Mindlink.

So if I have Manaroo and three Tanari Sycks all with Mindlink and I use Manaroo's ability "At the start of the Combat phase, you may assign all focus, evade, and target lock tokens assigned to you to another friendly ship." If Manaroo had a focus token and target lock that was moved to one of the Sycks, then all the other Sycks and Manaroo would get a focus token from the resulted assignment?

So, in summary, Manaroo moves a focus to another Syck then Manaroo ends up with a focus anyway as a result of the mind link? Is this correct? Thats like a free focus for all! So now the Sycks need only evade to end up with both tokens on their ship per turn.

Yes, that's all correct; if Manaroo is mindlinked and passes a focus token to someone else with mindlink, she replaces it because someone with mindlink got a focus token when she didn't already have one.

You just need to be aware of the stress passing and plan your movement accordingly. Only one of your mindlinked ships can do a red manoeuvre each turn...

Agreed.

Although Outlaw Tech on Manaroo would still manage a focus token onto everyone.Just have to keep the Sycks from doing red maneuvers.

Similarly, Kaa'To
