In regards to Huge ships, but the following part is more notworthy:

Cool. That makes Rebel fleet-building a bit more diverse.

Righteous. I heard an Epic/Huge FAQ was in the works, and mid-January is sooner than I expected.

Source? Google and DDG didn't return any hits and nothing popped up on his FB page... Or are you having a bad day and trolling to unwind?

And it looks like you're locked from viewing it for some reason but not from quoting it and having it pop up so others can read it...

What Matt Holland states is:

"an engagement value is different from an initiative value, so Roark and Swarm Tactics don't work - the engagement value supercedes the change to the initiative. Han Solo does work for a single attack. This will be in the next rules reference update in mid January"

That does make sense - it's a different wording, and it also comes with a big downside - locking out a turret arc is not that big a deal for a large ship which can rarely attack from the same arc more than once. For a broadside-laden rebel corvette, you're giving up a lot to have Han Shoot First.....but if you get to put a turbolaser shot into an ace before they can fire, it might be well worth it.

That's how they translate it for younger audiences. We all know better.

Since the younger audience is the audience intended by the writers of Return of the Jedi...😒

What an elegant fix! That would be pretty good as it would make red maneuvers return to their proper level of difficulty, and render obstacles a bit more fairly challenging. Hope this is true, could get behind this.

For most pilots, yes, this could be interesting. However, Vader would break this quite badly. He could move, take a lock, spend a force to barrel roll and then spend a force to focus. This would then replenish him back up to three force tokens...... 😎

I would interpret that to lock out that specific turret arc. So, if you used it on a Turbolaser which is the black turret arc, the you would be unable to fire again out of the black turret arc. It would not affect the white turret arc even if that turret was pointing the same direction. It could limit the Point Defense Battery since you could only fire out of the opposite turret arc, but I doubt it would hurt most of the other weapons.

"Once per turn, ..."

There, fixed it for you

It should not matter too much over the course of a game. At least as long as you can only regen 1 per turn.

Actually, it turns out that @Hiemfire is right...

https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Bantha_fodder

Quote

Bantha fodder was a type of food eaten by banthas. The phrase "bantha fodder" was also used as an offensive term, as the substance smelled extremely foul.
...

A common misconception is that "poodoo" refers to a bantha's feces.

So we're supposed to believe that Sebulba yelled "Fodder" or "Food!" when he crashed his pod?

As Yondu says, "I ain't buying it."

You're assuming it would ALL regen when you take a focus, rather than 1 regen when you take focus.
