(Just in case we get a further revision that messes the first link up, its ALWAYS available through that Second link)

Tournament Regulations were also updated:

Basically, apart from Clarifications on Lists and Wording, the big hitter in this one is:

IF YOU CONCEDE

Your Opponent gets an MOV of 140... OR MORE, if you concede when you're losing BADLY.

YAY

ZOMG YUSS

Are we all happy now? =)

ERMAHGAWD

They luv us!

NO.

ANSWER.

TO BCC.

WTF.

FFG IS THE BEST

FFG IS LOVE

FFG IS LIFE

(For another few days until we don't get any more updates and then they are once again dead to me.)

Are we all happy now? =)

They've never been happy.

SO it answers everything - except BCC/Scramblers.

What's our beef with BCC?

Whether or not they can stack?

Bomber Command..... not answered....

Isnt that THE most frequently asked question?

Also, Versch owes me and err_404 a flotilla each for Jamming Fields. :)

So for G8, you declare during the Determine Course step, but if using it on Engine Techs, it is before Determine Course step of that maneuver. Guess you still get the standoff for using nav token/dial to increase or decrease speed vs using G8 to decrease speed.

They didn't really answer the Fire-Control Teams + XX-9s + APTs, although I guess we can reasonably interpolate it interacts the same way as XX-9s + standard crit effect. I guess FCTs are just not meant to be decent. Hopefully wave 5 gives us some more crit cards to make FCTs worth the slot.

I have been enlightened and informed of how FCTs + XX9s + APTs several times, thank you to all whom are concerned.

Solve it with a Slap Fight.

They din't really... have to ... Did they?

By not drawing note to it, it assumes that the CRITICAL EFFECT dealt Card of APT, is not the "FIRST CARD" of a critical effect generated by XX9s.

Two Discrete Effects.

What did you mean by this?

It's not the same at all.

I think this really just suggests that the intent is that it be used with multiple special crit effects (like the ion crits), rather than faceup shenanigans (too much).

I'm generous enough to declare I'm going to use it first and let them figure out the rest.

ADDITIONALLY

This relates that FAQs MAY be on a 6 Month Cycle... (Only that the previous one was early)....

Because there was an FAQ Delivered on the 15th of October, 2015.

Instead of being APRIL 15th This year, it was March 15th... exactly ONE MONTH TO THE DAY EARLY .

SO, there may indeed by a Pattern to FAQs that we can judge better, going foward.

Sweet vindication. Every single interpretation I had was confirmed.

Whoops, I goofed on that interpretation I guess. I did not know it was already established that APTs + XX9s + FCTs can potentially deal 3 face-up cards.

"If a player that has access to hidden

information about the game or a card and chooses to verbally

share it with his or her opponent, that player is not required to

tell the truth."

I can lie to my opponent. The rules said so. :)

yeah that's weird. My interpretation was that if you deal enough damage cards, with that combo you can have up to 3 face up in one attack.
