I was looking at what to put on my Ketsu, and noticed that the Shadowcaster title does not specify if it was a secondary weapon or not. I know Snap Shot is a secondary and can only be fired out of the primary arc, but with Ketsu you want the auxiliary arc in the primary arc. So if my auxiliary arc is in my primary arc, I hit a ship with Snap Shot, can I trigger the title and assign a tractor beam token before they have done any actions?
Snap Shot + Shadowcaster Title?
"After you perform an attack that hits, if the defender is inside your mobile firing arc and at Range 1-2, you may assign the defender 1 tractor beam token."
Yes this works. It would also work if your arc was at one side and you Snap Shotted a ship that was at r1 in your primary arc (for snap shot to trigger) and at r1-2 in your mobile arc, i.e. that crossed the borderline between the arcs.
Nice catch, I'm not sure anyone's noticed that before.
Thats sweet, and the title does not say once per round, so you could potentially tractor the same ship three times in a round!
-snap shot tractor
-start of combat tractor
-combat attack tractor
Do bear in mind that no matter how many tokens you apply, you still get the option of movement only on the first token per round.
If someone barrel rolls into range 1 of snapshot would that trigger the effect?
Just wondering because if it did wouldn't that mean you could Ketsu ram someone, tractor them out of touching, snapshot?
Just looked at the tractor beam card and it says it's not an action or maneuver so I guess that answers that. Left leaving the post for general information though
No.
Boosting and barrel rolling are never manoeuvres.
