Fuel Leak Damage Deck Question

By Sean Riley, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Could someone please explain how Fuel Leak works? I'm new to the game.

Do you add another crit card, and then flip over the Fuel Leak?
Or do you just flip over the Fuel Leak?

I'm assuming if you turn the card to the print side again then the original thing happens again, I'm just not sure what that is. Do you take another crit card and then flip it over again? Or not?

Thanks for any help.

This crit is a fun damage card !

When you suffer a critical damage, whether it's from an attack, bomb, obstacle, or even another damage card (say you have Hull Breach and Console Fire both active), first you take the critical damage (and resolve it), then you suffer ANOTHER regular damage. After all that's done, you flip Fuel Leak face-down.

One way to think about it, is that it's basically a Direct Hit waiting to happen. Whatever the next critical damage is that you suffer, it's going to cause one extra damage, if you don't fix the leak.

Note that with Hull breach this is insanely brutal.
