Take That, Clankers! And Saber Throw

[Xercius]

Does Take That, Clankers! Increase the range of Saber Throw?

I believe that it does not and here is why:

The command effect triggers with a Ranged Attack, so saber throw DOES trigger it, but upon triggering it increases the maximum range of each of its ranged weapons, while saber throw isn’t changing the lightsaber to a ranged weapon, it is only allowing a melee weapon to make an ranged attack. The range isn’t part of the weapon profile, it’s specified in the command card text.

 

so if yoda used saber throw with take that Clankers, his Force wave ranged weapon would be extended to range 3 but the saber throw would not.

is this correct?

Hey there,

That's correct - "Saber Throw" would not be extended because it increases the range of a ranged weapon. You would be able to extend the range of Force Wave.
