Ok people, we are about to start a new advanced CC campaign with six players, and after the preview and discussions on the new wave, arose a heated debate on the Chimaera and the possibility during the game to have two ships with the same equipped Fleet Command.
Since actually, in the creation phase of the lists, it is necessary to equip two different ones, as we know because of their uniqueness, nothing "would forbid" (intentional conditional) during the course of the game the presence of two ships with two identical Fleet Command .... or at least this is what the Imperial players assume, and here the case broke out.
The Rebels players reject this interpretation, even if it is a edge case, and reject the possibility to play against the Chimaera list in such way.
On the other side the Imperial players claim not to accept three lists each with a Pelta and an AFFM as they are unique cards, arguing that CC rules prohibit the use of unique cards with the same name in different lists, so they ask that this combination can be equipped by only one list!
As the administrator of the group (and as Imperial player too) I would agree with the Rebel team on the Chimaera, and I feel that the Imperial team has wrong on uniqueness .... but I wonder, their reasoning, of both teams, on the uniqueness can make sense? How would you manage this case?
Thanks guys!
CC, Chimaera and Uniqueness.....
As a rebel player:
regrettably, It’s restricted by list.
equipping and re equipping during the game does nothing to the list - at the end of the battle, it reverts to the list.
let the imps have it, on the proviso that the chimaera player needs to have his own copies of the fleet commands used... the can’t share one copy around the group (as if all games are being played simultaneously, even if they are not).
its the easiest way to go about it, since all of the instruction we have means list stuff ends with game start.
We will first need to get chimaera sorted out for tournament scoring before we even think about CC.

Yes....this is my first consideration, its not the time, but I prefer set these "things" before we start, so no one can argue on it later.

I see your point, make sense, probably this is the better way, but still I'm feel not right about that...

Otherwise you basically invalidate the whole point of Half if Chimaera.
Ok, I'll think about it, but I think I'll follow your advice! Thanks Dras!
