Oh for sure. Honestly that would be my response to many of these, as well.
Rulings for worlds
Another little question:
Ezra with Jyn Erso and experimental interface - Can I use Jyn Erso action to give 0 concentration to a friendly ship (And get the stress from EI)

Yes, if you have no ships in your firing arc, you can still do the action.
Ditto Debris Gambit and obstacles, by the by.
Yup, the action gets the value by the count. The action still happens if the count is zero.

I'm gonna say no because the flip part reads like it's part of gaining the focus. Other cards that allow interruption between say things like "then gain a stress" or "then flip this card". It also removes some crazy subsequent complications like trying to resolve "flip this card" twice where someone would argue that returns it to the non exhausted side. Cue massive eye roll. Confidence level: 50%

A: This is a hard cap of 5 dice.
I've not seen it rules this way before, but on a close re-read of the card I can't disagree.
When using Miranda Regen with TLT, if you reduce a ship down to 0 hull on the first volley, can you still do the 2nd shot for regen?
Yes.

Yes, the ship isn't removed from the board till after the second shot. Lots of things can happen when a ship is "destroyed" but still on the board.
1 hour ago, Killerardvark said:Yes, the card doesn't really read that way, but I think it's a good precedence for removing some of the abusive measuring in the game. I'm a fan of eliminating any of that.
What about the precedent for TOs ruling on cards that completely contradict what the card actually says?

That is what I thought based on the timing chart and the ruling on simultaneous fire, but it came up at my last tournament. Thanks!
Sorry to bug you again, but our group thought of an edge case we wanted to be clear on.
For FAA, you declare your reposition action and check for range/arc for FAA then discover that you cannot complete the action (rock/ship is in the way), can you go back and pick another FAA action to perform?

This is gonna be the way around the ruling, and just be annoying and time consuming, because people will just be like "Check for FAA to barrel right" Even though its obvious a big asteroid is there. Then they will measure and not get the barrel roll and now have the proper info they need.

What about Prockets?

Same concept
Just now, Killerardvark said:Same concept
I figured...
I'm not going, so it doesn't really mean anything to me today...but if it becomes an official ruling in an FAQ coming soon.. I'll be sad. I love Procket Jake and Jan Ors.

Q: Torani attacks a ship and uses her ability on the defender. Can Jostero fire at that ship which took a damage?
A: No, the ship is still the defender and cannot be targetted by Jostero.
Just kills one of my favorite lists at the moment. Was debating taking it to System Open too. Looks like the decision has been made for me.

The Jostero and Torani list is still pretty strong. And this situation doesn't exactly happen every game. A lot of things have to line up just right.

Was that a bullseye joke?

I agree, especially in most cases I see the bomb from Nym trajectory simulating it or just a harpoon condition or even Torani on another ship still provides a wide array of ways to get Jostero's ability off. Likely Nym's bomb was already the most common because Torani or Nym's harpoon shot already force tokens getting spent and they can just spend 0 anyway afterwards.

A good argument to just allow measuring whenever you want to.

flight assist kinda did that already, but with the power to measure arcs as well. was super greasy now that I look back on it... but I love it!

FYI, there's a section in the tournament regulations stating that it is unsportsmanlike conduct to abuse rules. Stuff like this borders on that. If your opponent calls you out, it might get enforced. Fly casual.
