cluster missiles

By lsuedd2, in X-Wing Rules Questions

So I just got the Tie Advanced expansion in the mail. I was looking at the cards, such as cluster missiles. It appears that X-wings can also use them as their secondary weapon? Same goes for all the cards with the Tie Advanced? There is nothing that indicates they cannot be. And if thats the case then it sucks it only comes with one of each card.

Cluster missiles go in the missile slot, which is currently only on the TIE Advanced. X-wings and Y-wings have Torpedo slots, so they can't take Cluster Missiles or Concussion Missiles.

To expand on the above answer: if you look a little more closely you'll see that the symbols for the missiles and the torpedoes are different. Future Rebel ships may have a missile icon (such as the Falcon or A-Wing), in which case they will be able to use the cluster missile card from the TIE Advanced pack… though it looks like they will come with their own copy as well.

Yeah, missiles look like a missile, and torpedoes look like…..a slice of watermelon.

Sorry guys. didnt even notice the difference. Thanks! This is a great forum!
