The rules are correct. This seems quite clear and unambiguous. It specifically states that only 'when measuring distance' is the 'vertical distance' discounted. It goes on further to clarify that players may only use a measurement or range tool to measure distances and "may not use any other device to measure distances". Is the wording and language used here correct? The Line of Sight rules on page 37 of the rulebook states (emphasis mine): Again, clear and unambiguous. But take note of the language used, it is specifically talking about 'drawing a line', not 'measuring a distance'. Is the wording and language used here correct? The fourth bullet point of the Hunker Tokens & Cover rules on page 37 of the rulebook states (emphasis mine): Note the language used: "a straight line can be drawn". Again, this is 'drawing a line', not 'measuring a distance'. There is nothing here to indicate, or even suggest, that 'vertical distance is discounted' when drawing a line. Additionally, it uses the language 'through' and not 'overlapping', further distancing itself from the Measurement rules. Is the wording and language used here correct? The wording is correct, yes. Is this ruling correct? This ruling is correct. Provided that the Unit has a Hunker token and meets all other requirements, yes, it would gain Cover [1]. Yes, provided they meet all of the requirements to gain cover from the terrain.

Mace - Shatterpoint
AMG_Plummer replied to Corey Papinniemi's topic in Star Wars: Shatterpoint Rules Questions
No. When an ability instructs a Unit to "immediately make" an action, that action does not count against that Unit's limit of two actions per activation. No. A Unit may only make each action one time during its activation. -

When you first post a question to the forum, it will remain in an unapproved state until it can be officially answered, at which point it will be answered and approved. While unapproved, the post will be invisible to everyone but the original poster.

Han Solo, Pilot Modified YT-1300
AMG_Plummer replied to Kyle H's topic in Star Wars: X-Wing Rules Questions
When Han Solo (Modified YT-1300)'s pilot ability is triggered, you must reroll all of your dice. -

Dead to Rights interraction with other abilities
AMG_Plummer replied to Totem's topic in Star Wars: X-Wing Rules Questions
Yes, Dead to Rights would prevent the use of Naboo Handmaiden's Decoyed condition, as it requires a green token to be spent. No, Dead to Rights would not prevent a player from using Juke's ability, as no green tokens are spent/used. -
Fearsome Prey and Homing Missiles
AMG_Plummer replied to GamblerTuba's topic in Star Wars: X-Wing Rules Questions
Yes, the defender would gain a strain token on account of the Fearsome Prey condition. -
This applies to both adding dice to the attack roll, and adding results, provided it is the attacker that is adding those results. The statement that dice cannot be added means that additional dice cannot be rolled. Adding results is a modification of dice, and attacks at attack range 0 cannot be modified, except by the defender.

Migs Mayfeld Gunner + Tie Heavy
AMG_Plummer replied to Yandros's topic in Star Wars: X-Wing Rules Questions
No, not with an equipped cannon, though there are other means to make this work. For example, the TIE/rb doesn't have a native Front Arc, and any cannon with a Front Arc restriction gets treated as a Turret Arc instead. Because of this, cards that reference a "Front Arc attack" such as Outmaneuver and Migs Mayfield wouldn't work with an equipped cannon. However, a TIE/rb with the Snap Shot talent equipped WOULD meet the requirements of Outmaneuver and Migs Mayfeld. *edited on 22/02/23 - Updated reply and added clarification* -
Strikers and Reapers during Salvage Mission
AMG_Plummer replied to PhantomFO's topic in Star Wars: X-Wing Rules Questions
These ships can use their ship ability while towing a supply cache. This boost is not an action and is, therefore, unaffected by the restriction.- 1 reply
