SLAM and bomb

By balindamood, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Can someone please remind me where I can find the ruling that says I cannot drop a mine before I do a SLAM action (eg the now infamous example in the previous wave 7 article showing dropping a mine and flying away, but then finding out that is not how it works).

Thanks.

FAQ v411, p16:

Q: Does the SLAM action count as revealing your dial for the sake of card abilities (such as dropping a bomb)?
A: No, it does not count as revealing your dial.

Thx.

Also, mines differ slightly from bombs even though they are still considered bombs by requiring an action to drop.

Can you use the Advanced Slam then drop a mine? AS allows an action if not stressed.

Yes

Oh, the endless arguments that this caused before the release of the K and th FAQ. I will never trust another FFG article. Ever.
