Turret Primary

By taulover55, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Hey Guys

My Google-Fu has failed me (and i cant find what i need on a search!!)

When you have a Turret Primary weapon, and then add TLT for example, can you still choose to use your primary turret in place of the TLT attack? (i'm thinking K Wing and someone into Range 1)

We've been playing as you can choose to use either one in the attack phase, at tourneys its not come up as i normally drop a bomb/mine with advanced SLAM then I've got something to TLT the next turn

Yes, you can choose to use your primary weapon on a k-wing at any time (including at range 2-3, though there's no reason why you'd want to). Nothing about the turret upgrade you equip changes that. Miranda in particular likes, to; you can either take a 4- and a 3-die TLT at range 2-3, or a 4 die primary at range 1...

Excellent, i thought that was the case and couldnt find anything in the FAQ about it.

It's in the main rules reference - see page 4 where it lists the steps involved in the attack sequence.

By far the only thing that makes you lose your primary weapon attack is Outrider title.

as long as you have it and a Secondary weapon equipped, you have no primary attack possibility
