OK. I found my rulebook.

Planetary Fighters.
Per the card "Scored damage equal to die roll plus remaining strength." D6+6-damage suffered.
The reference to two dice on the top of page 15 is errated in the Q&A Q: Should planet-based fighters be Remaining Damage plus one (card) or two (rulebook) die rolls? A: One die roll.

Remaining damage plus 1d6. The rulebook is wrong.
The rule precedence goes: the card, rulebook, infocard.

Can ships in reserve cloak? If so, do they maintain their cloak when they move to the screen or the main body?

By Robert Snook (Verdick) on Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 03:29 pm: Edit

Yes, ships in the reserve can cloak.
Yes, they can maintain their cloak if they move, though it will replace your action or be on another turn as cloaking counts as a formation change.

If I pick up a set of Battle Force does it have enough cards for two people to play (even if just a simple game)? I want to try it out with my son but I want to make sure he'll like it first before getting two complete sets.

One deck should let 4-6 people play (I dont have exact numbers in front of me).

The game is pretty easy to learn, and a kid should pick it up in no time.

If I make a valid drone attack, is there a limit to the number of scatter packs I can add off of it?

Rules question: On page 14 of the rules, regarding the resolution of fighter attacks, it mentions that the defending player may fire defensively at incoming fighters using applicable weapons cards (plural). It also mentions that a ship in the Screen may also fire at incoming fighters using an available weapon card (singular). Does this mean that a ship in the screen may only fire using one weapon card, or is this a typo?

Is the "turn sequence" card that came with the game online anywhere? My six-year old forgot to put it back when he was done playing w/ dad's game.

How many action cards can a player have in reserve?? I know you can have only 2 ships in reserve but the rulebook is unclear on how many reserve action cards a player can have.

By Andy Palmer (Andypalmer) on Tuesday, May 20, 2003 - 08:28 pm: Edit

Jim. Three action cards in reserve.
