Intimidation stacks?

By Smuggler, in X-Wing Rules Questions

If a ship has two enemy ships with Intimidation at range 0, will it roll 2 fewer defence dice while defending?

I guess it does and that it's not a big deal as that would probobly mean two ships can't fire at the poor intimidated basterd any way :)

unless one is Arvel and the other has Zeb on board

Yep, it would stack up, each one of the intimidations would reduce by 1.

Funky if you can get it to work... but not super likely, you would most likely have to be ramming the ship with multiple of your ships to pull it off... that's a lot of actions you won't have.

Heff with Zeb

or VCX with Zeb and Sheathipede docked

or Lando with Zeb after a Blue maneuver

Lando has to fully execute a maneuver. So it does not work if he rams

Going to bump this. This could work with a named tie swarm raming ships. Also, can you partially complete boost actions (to bump)?

Nope. RR on Boost states: "• While attempting to place a ship to complete a boost, the action can fail if any of the following occurs:

◊ The ship’s final positions would cause the ship to overlap another ship.

◊ The ship would overlap or move through an obstacle.

◊ The ship’s final position would cause it to be outside the play area (and therefore would cause that ship to flee). "

Unless you are Arvel Crynyd...

Yes, Golden Rule means their card text can do things not normally allowed in the rules.

Thats my goal with this one. Hera can change her dial to ram, Arvel can hang back and get an i6 coordinated boost to ram as well.
