Recently a player informed me that the method for measuring range to a ship has changed from being the base to being the edge of the cardboard chit that sits in the base. If this is true, can someone tell me where it was written? I didn't see it in the new Tournament Rules, FAQ, or Core Rulebook 2, so either it's somewhere else or I just keep missing it.
Measuring Range Changed?

I have heard nothing of the sort, so I'm confident the other player is pulling something.
Possibly the other player was getting his X-wing and Armada rules mixed up. In Armada, you do measure range from the cardboard rather than the plastic.
No such change has been made for X-wing, though.
The only range measurement from the cardboard is measuring an attack range in an arc locked ship in which case you have to measure in arc which is not the same as the plastic corner.

Ok I didn't think so, thank you.
Oh and I'm confident he wasn't trying to pull something. He's a good kid, and at the time he was also insisting that his ship was the one who was unable to fire (Decimator v. T-70 in week 2 of a league tournament).

When somebody says something like that, as them to show you where in the rules it says so. Otherwise, they're full of it.
