Hi guys,

just a quick one to verify something. if i have the space tug tractor array on a quadjumper and use it to barrel roll a ship can that ship then use the barrel roll action later in the round? my thoughts are no as it can't perform the same action twice in a round but would like to know if this is the case. and if i do barrel roll them could i use another quadjumper to boost them forward there by denying them any re-positioning potential?

cheers

The rule is that a ship can only perform an action once per round. Being rolled by a tractor beam is not performing a barrel roll action, thus the two do not conflict.

1. Yes, because it's not a barrel roll action you force them to do

2. You can only apply the moving effects of tractor beams once per round

Thanks ?

So if you have 2 quads they would have to tractor 2 different ships?

If you wanted to throw the enemy around, yes, but to reduce agility, no

Just remember, the effect of moving a (small base) ship only occurs on the assignment of a tractor beam token if, before it was assigned, it did not already have one.

Additional tokens assigned only serve to reduce agility.

Not quite correct. It occurs the first time each round a tractor token is assigned. Ketsu Onyo crew can make them persist between rounds, so whether there's a token there already or not isn't the critical factor.

Huh. Never noticed that. Nice

Ahhh.... happy to be corrected on that one @thespaceinvader I totally missed the words 'Per Round' on the card!
