Has the unique ability to pass its turn... can you put the stat-advisior on it? Or will that be locked to ISDs only?

Pretty sure SA is "large base" ship only. Sounds like SSD is a new class of ship "huge base." That's my guess.

No guess, that’s what the article says.

Says "Large Ship Only" on the SA, so no to putting it on the SSD.

I hope you can take Hardened Bulkheads.

I took a crack at a stupid fleet build. Behold the command 1 SSD!

399/400

SSD 220
Thrawn 32
Brunson 5
Tactical Expert 6
Engineering Captain 6
Gunnery Teams 7
Leading Shots 4
XI7 6

Morna Kee 27

Dengar 20

3x Decimators 66

The idea is you fill the stack with navigates, thrawn is filled with squads, then throw out engineering or concentrate whenever you want. And viola you have a command 1 Super Star Destroyer

They may FAQ it.

Are right and left arcs inclusive terms?

They may Errata it, as FAQ is not enough...

They May also give me a free SSD for being a total kickass Rules guy...

But on face value, no.

... unless the rules that come with the SSD say "Huge ships count as a Large ships [in some circumstances]" or "Huge ships can equip upgrades that can go on Large ships." No need for an errata - built into the new rules for Huge ships.

Again, possible - but not on face value.

Face value is Huge =/= Large

The only way would be if the "Huge" ship was a term like a "flotilla". Flotillas are a ship class in and of itself in regards to the rules, but for the purposes of upgrades is a small ship. They could do something similar couldn't they?

I'd say anything is possible. Hence my above statement about guessing. Until all the info is out on this expansion we're all just making extrapolations on incomplete info. Which is why we're all here in the first place! Yay!! :)

Not really - ships are defined by their base sizes.

Flotilla works as it’s a subset of a size. Indeed, it is possible to have small, medium and even large Flotillas...,

Huge IS a new size, as it literally is a new base size.

Now the most importat question:

Too much faith on the article, maybe? ?

No.

i can see indeed that it’s on a base bigger than large.

One turn in after jerry and a dial + token and this thing has vantage on all your ships. You done goofed.

also, it comes with krennic, officer vader, officer palpy

It's just the inverse of a flotilla - flotilla is two ships on one small base, huge ship is 1 ship on 2 large bases. Makes a nice bookend. I'm gonna stand by "Huge is a large for purpose of upgrades" until proven otherwise cause I want to live in a fantasy world where Motti works on him.

It says in the article, "on two large bases"

If nothing else, I know I’m not always right - I do have to eat a tie fighter after all - but done things just make sense when you apply Occams Razor...
