Apologies if this has been cleared before. Here is the scenario

Poe equipped with pattern analyzer reveals green 3 forward and lands in range one of r3a2 snap shot Nien Nunb. Does he get his action or not?

Snap Shot : " After an enemy ship executes a maneuver, you may perform this attack against that ship. Attack: Attack 1 ship. You cannot modify your attack dice and cannot attack again this phase. "

Pattern Analyzer: " When executing a maneuver, you may resolve the "Check Pilot Stress" step after the "Perform Action" step (instead of before that step). "

Execute maneuver is divided in 3 steps a) Move ship, b) Check Pilot Stress, c) Clean Up Then we get to Perform Action step. So my question is does PA breaks the Execute maneuver and Poe can perform action before snapshot activates?

Thanks.

How interesting. On the surface I'd say he does get to take actions, but I'm interested if there is another take on it.

No. Pattern Analyzer is moving the Check Pilot Stress to after Perform Action. It isn't moving Perform Action to before Check Pilot Stress and making it part of Executing a Maneuver.

Fair enough, that sounds reasonable. Thanks WWHSD.

For future reference, there is a Rules Subforum for these kinds of questions.

He doesn't get to take an action, because he's stressed when he would have the opportunity to perform it.

He does get to clear the stress from R3A2.

The sequence would normally be

Manoeuvre

Check Stress (remove any existing stress having done a green move)

Snap Shot/R3A2 (gain stress)

Perform action (skipped because stress)

With PA it becomes

Manoeuvre

Snap Shot/R3A2 (gain stress)

Perform action (skipped because stress)

Check Pilot Stress (remove one stress because green move).

Oh come on, where is the punchline?

Well full health Poe got obliterated in one round of firing there is a "punch"
