While I entirely agree with MJW as to how the rules are written, I want to add my support to the question raised by Patrick Doyle.
There is a subtle, but significant, difference here that no one ha ... |

I also read it that way.
The Tractoring ship must MATCH the negative tractoring bids (so they would cancel each other out) so that the ONE point of power to start the tractor would win out

First, this should be reworded as FC has no "Direct Fire Phase" we have an Offensive Fire Phase.
Good point. I will remember that.
You are welcome. Thank you for your hard work.

Mjwest,
If your reply was directed towards me, Yes I understand that continuing EM into another turn is not a change. Sorry if my prior post seemed like I was shocked.
Mike,

junior is correct.
Some clarifications:
- As junior points out, nothing else in the Evasive Maneuvers rules change. So you still have the two impulse delay before you can stop EM.
- The only ... |

My guesses as to the answers (and reasoning) -
1.) I don't think that the rules allow this. So far as I can tell, the only time that you can declare EM is in the Defensive Fire Phase. So if you ... |

"Engery cost: At the end of the Defensive Fire Phase (1E2c) of any Impulse, you may announce ... |
