So quick question the ghost with the title can it shoot twice with a Turret or one with primary and second with Turret?
Edit also could u fire a tlt 2 full time in a turn and effectively put 4 stress on some one with Tactician?

Edited by kgwradfordBoth, based on the way the Phantom title is worded.
Side note: Again, as worded, using a Twin Laser Turret as the second title-based turret attack would mean you would only perform the first TLT attack and not the second, as after the first the title's text of 'you may not perform another attack this round' kicks in.
So the most attacks you can do with the Ghost. Phantom and titles are 3 (TLT as the first, then half a TLT as the second)
Ok that's what I thought. Just wanting to see what other people though j plan on doing a accuracy correcter and auto blaster Turret combo for take 2 then take 2 again at the end of the round.
It works out as both - I had an argument with someone about this and our local store guy, who is also a worlds finalist and local TO, agreed with me.
The Phantom card allows you to a) make attacks from the rear arc and b) attack with a turret weapon at the end of the combat phase - but only when the Phantom is docked with the Ghost. The card does not make one dependent on the other.
It's what makes Autoblaster Turret good on the ghost (considering I'm pairing it with accuracy corrector) - at range one, it's 4 unavoidable damage. You get an Ace slipping into range one, and it's in trouble - especially Soontir. Others might have enough to survive one turn, but you still have 4 red's at range 1-2 from both arcs.
The Phantom card allows you to a) make PRIMARY* attacks from the rear arc
The special arc always exists, and you can fire torpedoes out of it regardless of whether or not a shuttle is docked.
Not only that, but I think if you have TLTs and a Tactician equipped, firing a TLT at R2 from the rear arc will double stress someone regardless of whether a shuttle is docked, as Tactician makes no distinction between auxiliary arc, primary arc, or special arc. Enemies merely need to be "in arc".
Just posting here for additional awareness and clarification.

Do you have rules text that backs this up? It's definitely not how the cards read, but if you have your ships and the rules inserts, please share!
it states on the card you need to have it docked to use the back arc.... unless I am missing something.

So at first glance it looks to me that when you attack an enemy with a turret and he is in the special arc, autothrusters do not work and tactician does (within range limits)...?

Unless we receive an FAQ that says otherwise, that's how all of this seems to be worded. The special arc always exists. It is only attacking from the Special Arc with your primary weapon that is limited by having a shuttle docked.
As far as I can tell, this is treated as a firing arc and it's always in play. I could be wrong, but that's the way it all reads to me.
