So I've been listening to a number of podcasts and someone mentioned that it would be nice if you could barrel roll a ghost which got me thinking. Can you use Expert Handling to barrel roll a large base ship that has the ept slot. My main thinking is for the decimator. I've looked at the card and the FAQ and there doesn't seem to be anything saying EH is small ship only.
Am I right or am I missing something?
Cheers
Yes. But note that barrel rolls work differently for large ships.
Thanks now my plan can become reality.
Does that include a plan for bribing FFG to print a VCX pilot with an EPT slot?
But yeah. Lots of people mention this. Never seen one actually used, though, so son't get your hopes too high of it being very effective

I did - Oicunn with EH, Ion, Palpa and Dauntless:
Bump>Dauntless>EH if needed> Ion/Palpa permalock combo.
It was way easier to set up frontal block with EH than boost.
Cassian Andor with Expert Handling and Advanced Sensors can do some odd things.
I ran Scum Boba with EH and K4 Security Droid a few times back in the day. Never really paid for itself, but it was fun.
Rey with EH is awesome

This. She's a beast with EH when loaded out.
I'm thinking Oicunn with Mara Jade and inspiring recruit crew, Dauntless and anti-pursuit lasers.
So you ram with Oicunn and they take a damage. You then use dauntless to activate EH and barrel roll away. Take two stress. The ship you bumped moves and if you positioned right they hit you, no action and take anti-pursuit lasers plus a stress. Then in the next round you dial in a green move that won't clear the other ships base and clear the stress. They take another hit from Oicunn. You barrel roll again. Rinse and repeat.
It's more expensive, but Oicunn with Engine Upgrade and Daredevil is a more reliable way to push damage via ramming.
