nien numb on the k wing

By Ywingpilot45, in X-Wing Rules Questions

If nien numb is a crew member on the k wing, and the k wing slams straight is that maneuver green?

Yes.

Yes.

But the cases where it will be relevant are vey few and far between, given that SLAM is an action, and the K wing has no way other than using its crew slot (so no Nien Nunb) of performing actions whilst stressed.

(I guess it would be relevant for the crit that gives you stress on white manoeuvres, on reflection)

I would work with advanced slam assuming you start with stress.

Use the green 3-straight as your slam move to clear stress so you can take the free action afterwards.

Except you cannot take the initial SLAM action if you are stressed, because SLAMming is an action and you cannot take actions when you are stressed.

Numb turns all straights green. Do a straight maneuver, lose stress, SLAM with advanced slam, perform action. That should work very well.

Yes it works. But... it still doesn't clear any stress by SLAMming.

Sorry I missed the point about doing a Slam to clear stress.

This does bring up an interesting possibility, though. Since SLAMing is executing a maneuver, and Check Pilot Stress happens during the execution of the maneuver now, a stressed K-Wing with Chopper crew could SLAM a green maneuver and clear their stress at the cost of a damage. Not a lot of situations where that'd be relevant, but it's true.
