Snap Wexley, Adaptability and Black One title

By BlodVargarna, in X-Wing Rules Questions

The rules of Black One states "you cannot equip this title if you are pilot skill 6 or lower"

Adaptability FAW states ships don't alter pilot skill until placed in play area.

So I guess it seems that Snap (PS 6) can't take B1 title unless he as VI b/c adaptability doesn't kick in until placed, and since he si PS 6 before he is placed, B1 title can't be equipped.

That is correct, dual-sided cards don't take affect until the ship they are attached to is placed

Veteran Instincts works nicely on Snap for getting Black One equipped on him :D

So that would also theoretically mean Nien can equip B1 + adapt and then adapt down to PS6, but still be a legal user of B1?
