Played a friendly game yesterday, and my friend said I could not move one of my B-wings that was at distance 1 of his Raider with Instigator title.
The B-wing had an obstacle between it and the Raider, and had clearly obstructed line of sight. But do the B-wing still count as if it is engaged with two sqds?
FYI: It was a very nice and friendly game, with a good pace to it, so I chose not to contest my friends claim, to avoid bogging the game down.
Yes, it still counts as engaged.
Where did you measure LoS to determine if it was obstructed?
Edited by ArdaedhelYep. The Card is Clear Cut.
1) Are you within Distance 1? Yes/No
If Yes: Engaged by 2 Squads and thus, can not move.
If No: Not Engaged by 2 Squads and thus, can move, assuming there's nothing else engaging you.
Nothing else matters when you're looking at the movement side.
Shootin's a whole other Collection of Posts in the Rules Forum
But in short.
Be happy that they were B-Wings and could fire at it.
I've had it happen to me with Y wings and they not only couldn't move, but they couldn't bloody shoot Instigator because of it.
My Pelta+Adar Talon+All Fighters Follow Me with Keyan + 2x B-wings made short work of that Raider.
Keyan was already in front of the Raider, no obstruction and one of the B-wings was outside distance 1 of the Raider, which already was missing one of its front shields.
After being hammered by the B-wing at distance 1 and the other B-wing going in at "speed 3", Keyan gave the Raider the killer blow, flew away at "speed 3" and was un-activated by Adar, getting ready for the next hapless victim
There are (as far as i remember) only two cards that allows the squadrons to move out of the Instigator. Chiraneau and Tycho. And Chiraneau can be a really funny surprise

I think many ppl read instigator as "squadrons at distance 1 cannot move". Which is wrong, but an easy mistake to make.

Can I be honest?
I think you should.
I've seen what Massed Cloak does when its properly commanded. I think if anyone is going to find the unlock edge and really go to town with it, its you, Mister-All-The-Gozantis-in-Europe.

I have to be honest. I was using the Phantoms once or twice. But i always forgot the cloak move
