Hi

Another stupid question

Does Motti give flotilla 1HP?

In my opinion no because this is Flotilla not small ship.

Flotillas are ships. The current flotillas are small ships.

So yes, he does.

A slightly more in depth answer:

Think of "Flotilla" as a keyword for ships. They follow all rules in every way for ships, except only what the keyword itself changes. Just like the Bomber keyword for squadrons. X Wings have Bomber, so they are Bombers - but they still move, activate, attack, etc just like squadrons do. The only difference is that when resolving attacks against ships, they can count critical faces, and resolve critical effects.

Similarly flotillas are ships, but with the keyword that alters how ramming works sometimes.

Yes.
