Ric Olié gets an additional die on attack and defense against opponents if the speed of his “revealed maneuver” is higher than the enemy’s.

R2-A6 says that “After you reveal your dial, you may set your dial to a maneuver of the same bearing of a speed 1 higher or lower.”

Let’s imagine that my opponent’s Academy TIE reveals a 2-straight, and completes the maneuver. Ric reveals a 2-hard left, which puts him more or less face-to-face with the TIE, at range 1. I realize that if I adjust the dial to give him a 3-hard left, I will still be face-to-face with the enemy, at range 1. Does altering my dial at this point (with R2-A6) change my “revealed maneuver,” giving me a full 4 attack dice and 3 defense dice vs. the TIE? Or is my “revealed maneuver” still considered to be a 2-hard left, even after using the astromech’s text?

This also has implications regarding Dineé Ellberger, obviously.

please note that the only point at which you can alter your dial with R2-A6 is after you reveal it. this means immediately after you reveal it, before you move.

Thanks, that’s how I imagined it would work!
