Just got the CR90; Question about small ships overlap.

Can a small shio move through an epic? Ie: from one side to the other? Does the obstacle rules still apply?

Sort of. A small or large ship whose final position overlaps a huge ship bumps and loses its action as normal, but it also rolls an attack die and suffers any hits or crits rolled. It doesn't take any penalty for overlapping with just the maneuver template.

(Huge ship rules, page four.)

According to the rules, only if the plastic bases overlap do you roll for damage suffering any hits or crits rolled. Otherwise you can fly through the huge ship.

Beware of the aft end of a huge ship if you're near when it turns. I've lost a couple of fighters to a "side swipe".

Cool. I noticed the rules talking about final position overlap, just not maneuver templates. Thank you!

Follow up question:

CR90 gets equipped with secondary weapons. They are limited to the forward and backward facing firing arcs, on their appropriate bases; so they can't shoot broadside or anything, correct?

CR90 has broadside arcs, not forward and back...

Yeah, @Ccwebb , you may be falling victim to an optical illusion here. The only printed arcs on the CR-90's base point straight out from the sides. The only way the CR-90 can shoot straight forward is because its primary weapon is a turret, and it can't shoot straight back at all, because of the blue line rule.

Thank you for pointing that illusion out, and that is cool that they left the blind spot on the CR90.
