Ship attacking a ship, then attacking a squadron question

By Sybreed, in Star Wars: Armada Rules Questions

Hi guys,

So I was watching videos of 2 guys playing Armada. In one video, one guy attacked another ship from his front hull, and attacked from his front hull with his anti-squadrons armaments, saying he could because it's anti-squadrons and not anti-ships.

It felt wrong to me, am I correct to assume the attacker couldn't attack a ship then squadrons from the same hull zone?

You are correct that what he did was illegal by the basic rules.

There are only two circumstances in which a ship could break that rule:
1) The ship is equipped with the Gunnery Team weapons team upgrade card that allows a ship to attack twice from the same hull zone provided the attacks are made at different targets.

2) The objective being played is Advanced Gunnery and the ship in question is an objective ship, which provides a similar (but better) version of the Gunnery Team effect.

Thank you, it might be possible he had Gunnery team. I'll have to recheck.

3) also impetuous....... ;)

I didn't include Impetuous because the OP said (or at least implied) it was the second attack. But yes, the Impetuous title on a Raider can allow for an additional attack on a squadron out of an arc that has already attacked.

heh... I was just being pedantic because I haven't had my fourth cup of coffee ;)

(and because I just used it and ITS AWESOME SAUCE!) :)

Oh yeah, Impetuous can be pretty fun. I'm looking forward to Raider-I+Ordnance Experts+Impetuous+Agent Kallus. Jan Ors clearly needs a double helping of 3 rerollable black dice. Eat up, Jan! Yum yum!

Instigator got all of the attention at the start...

Meanwhile, Impetuous is just sitting there, quietly being Awesome...

You want RS not OE. 75% chance of a hit, you dont need two hits.

Or you know, let me run around with Gallant haven...

Yeah never liked instigator. Just used squads to lock up,stuff

But impetuous is money! Double arc a hero for six reroll able black dice! DEATH! :)
