•Esege Tuketu

By thoracicpork, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Can a huge ship use Esege Tuketu's card text? Would seem like it could...

"When another friendly ship at Range 1-2 is attacking, it may treat your focus tokens as its own"

This one will still get argued, but the best guidance we have is that yes it can, based on a Frankmail.

Interesting. And thank you for the link. As it's been answered by this particular authority, how does it still get argued?

Huge ships rules are far, far, far behind in terms of update. Quite honestly, they should almost make a seperate FAQ for huge ships.

We also had a Frankmail saying that the Evade result added by a Reinforce token could be Juked, even though that's clearly wrong, and that later got reversed when Reinforce became a thing that non-epic ships had. So for people hung up on the "huge ships cannot be affected by" flavor text, there's some hope that a similar thing will happen here.

meaning the hope is that the focus token from the K-Wing will be prevented from being used by the huge ship?

For those who have staked out the position that this doesn't work, their only hope of being proven right is a reversal, is what I'm saying.

ah. understood.

Yes it works, it is one of the very rare instances (maybe the only one?) where it can happen.

Also the one time someone tried it against me, Carnor was at range 1 of the Tantive (:
Thanks Dormitz!
