I keep hearing/reading people bemoan the huge buff the YT-2400 received for 2.0. But I've reread the Sensor Blindspot a few times, which reads as follows:

"While you perform a primary weapon attack at Range 0-1, do not apply the Range 0-1 bonus AND roll one fewer attack die."

As I break this down, I read this as 4 dice primary attacks outside of Range 1, which is quite obvious. Range 0-1 primary attacks should be 2 dice. Anyone see this differently?

How is subtracting 1 dice at ranges 0-1 getting you from 4 down to 2?

Whoops, logic is hard today.

Happens to all of us. Good flying o/

Yeah, I remember reading or hearing something from FFG talking about Dash, how he gets 4 dice at Range 2-3, but only 2 dice at Range 1, and was wondering how the math played out for that... seems like it should be 3 dice at R1, 4 at R2, and 4 at R3 (with a defender's range bonus), assuming you manage mobile turret arcs correctly...?

It is 3. They were just unclear. They meant 'works like a 2 die primary at r1'.

...then why not just say, " While you perform a primary weapon  attack at Range  0-1  , roll 2 fewer attack dice?" It's just... shorter. And far less confusing.

FFG, this was supposed to be the point where you fix problematic card wording!

Because this way it does what it's meant to do if a future upgrade changes the range bonus.
