Hello all.
Say you have Raymus Antilles and Ahsoka on a Pelta Command Ship in a fleet lead by Admiral Leia Organa. Would you be able to...
1. Set squadron command dial.
2. Reveal the squadron command, trigger Raymus to gain a squadron token.
3. Spend the command dial with Leia to resolve a squadron command as though it spent the dial and the token.
4. Use Ahsoka to change the squadron token from Raymus into an engineering token.
5. Use the engineering token to trigger Shields to Maximum! at the beginning of the next ship phase and repeat the whole process.
Leia, Raymus and Fleet Command
Yeah, but it would be stupidly expensive
Just to clarify, there aren't any "weird" interactions or unexpected combos here, really:
- Leia simply gives you +1 squadron (as usual).
- Raymus simply gives you a free token (as usual).
- Ahsoka simply lets you choose a different token type (as usual).
This is a bit different from the situation discussed in this thread , wherein the timing of Raymus+Ahsoka is exploited to achieve something that would not normally be possible.
And... welcome!
Thanks Diablo. It looked like it would work on paper but there's a far number of moving parts in it and I wanted to confirm. While stupidly expensive it could make for a nice hospital with projection experts or dual purpose carrier/healer with the setup I used in the example.
Oh and thanks for the forum welcome. Long time listener, first time caller (as it were).
You can do it smarter/cheaper in a fashion
Vet Captain instead of Raymus, and bring Hondo along.
Turn 1: Comms Net flotilla takes engineering, pelta takes engineering
Top of 2, pelta triggers StM. Turn 2, flotilla pushes it over.
Top 3, trigger. turn 3, vet captain jumps out an airlock for the engr token
top 4, trigger.
top 5, trigger hondo first, then trigger StM with the token.
top 6, discard the card
same cost as Raymus, but you spread out your abilities. and get another token with Hondo AND a Comms Net flotilla for helping out later.
It would work because spending the token to trigger a fleet command is not using it as part of the command dial, so no stacking issues or using a "different command" issues with leia.

If you are going to use a comms flotilla anyways, couldn't you just take the token for engineering every time and push it over? It would be even cheaper, there are less moving parts, and you get the same effect.
I'm trying to learn more about timing before I get into tournament stuff.
Leia is only concerned if you spend a token for a different command, not if you spend a token for an upgrade cost or other alternate effect.
