So can I red K-turn, then baffle and still take an action? I wouldn't think so because you get the stress at the check stress step, so your action is already passed, but someone told me you could?

Thanks,

Given that baffle's opportunity to trigger is on receipt, you can discard that token immediately and still take an action, from what I can tell. Especially because your action comes after the "Check pilot stress" step!

No, you execute your manoeuvre, which includes checking for stress, then you trigger Electronic Baffle to remove the stress token you've just received, take the damage and move on to the Perform Action step unstressed.

Although it's a pretty inefficient way to get an action.

*: ...which is also a pretty inefficient way to get an action.

I'd rather just stay put with the Lambda and take a damage than be forced to move into a worse position where I'll be taking even more damage. Plus I get an action, which I can use to mark a ship with a TL for Vessery's ability.

That's not inefficient. It's only 1 point, if it would be bad for you to use it in a certain match just don't.

its bad on squishy ships, which i think the Phantom is the only one with sensor slot thats super squishy. Phantom doesnt really need it anyway.

But yes, Baffles triggers when you get the stress. Any time you are assigned a stress token you may take 1 damage to not take it. Meaning if you opt to not take the damage you cant get rid of the stress later (botched myself a few times on this with palpmobile, halfway through the round REALLY wishing i baffled earlier lol)

The only way you can get stressed even if you have baffles is in epic play and you get Jammed. Jamming assigns 1 stress indefinitely until you have 3, which in theory can kill a ship with baffles with 16hp in 1 round if the player feels like being funny and keep taking damage lol. You have to accept the stress for Jamming to stop assigning it.

MEN, this would be insane to have the action step before the stress step... this would mean we can K-Turn do an action and receive a stress.... at the same time this would make green move way less powerful...

There's a Tech upgrade in the Heroes of the Resistance pack that looks like it gives you the option of switching them around.

Hmm. It looks pretty good, but it does fail to satisfy my insatiable need to damage myself.

So use it to perform an action before k-turning onto a potentially damaging asteroid.

No ****... this cost 3 points on specific ship... this is a huge difference then any ship taking their action before receiving the stress... right now, as the wheel are set this would change a lot.

Advanced Sensors is also a comical way to PTL without getting stressed. Set green move, adv sensors action PTL for another and get stress, immediately remove via green move. Bam lol
