Jessica is, indeed, correct.

Frank:

Glad yuo figured it out.

My computer is driving me insane, that is the current explanation for it. Sigh.

By Jeff Anderson (Jga) on Thursday, September 03, 2026 - 11:32 am: Edit

SPP? You have my full sympathy with your computer problems. Mine would drive me crazy as well, if I weren't already there... :)

By Frank Lemay (Princeton) on Thursday, September 03, 2026 - 01:44 pm: Edit

SPP, Jessica
Thank you both for helping me out.
I do appreciate it very much !

Thanks again.

Cheers
Frank

Question re a Starfish drone.
A Starfish drone does not get a chance to unload its ADDs [launched too late in error] but does impact on the drone target it is following.
Is the targetted drone destoryed ?

Thanks.

Cheers
Frank

By Steve Petrick (Petrick) on Tuesday, September 08, 2026 - 03:02 pm: Edit

Under the provisions of (FD1.56), no. Note this is inferred, not specifically stated in the rules. The Starfish drone is in this case treated as a "null" module and cannot destroy the drone it is tracking.

Under the provisions of (FD1.56) no, the starfish drone is essentially treated as a "null module".

Thank you SPP.
