Battle of Yavin, Exiting the Trench Run

[Patrick_Patrick]

Looking at the Battle of Yavin: Exit the Trench.  It states, When a ship exists the trench, place the left or right hard one maneuver template so that it is flush with either side of the exhaust port and place the ships so that it's rear guides align with the other side of the maneuver template.

Does this mean if I am range three and I fire at the port, I do the following:

1.  Pick up my ship

2. Place the range 1 hard turn template on the left or right side of the exhaust port with one edge on the dotted line

3. Place my ship at the end of the template so that my ship is facing 180 degrees from it's starting position

Or

Do I use the 1 hard left or right and exit the trench from my ships current position

[Tim H]

To exit the trench you do the following.

1) Place the 1 left turn or 1 right turn template so that one end of the template is flush against the "Exhaust port" tile and not overlapping the tile.
2) Pick up the ship which has been assigned the attack run condition.
3) Place that ship so that it's rear guides align with the end of the template not touching the "Exhaust port" tile.

So in practice your ship will end up being placed parallel to the trench facing away from the board edge.
