I think this would be less of an issue at all if the controller of the drones had any control, but he doesn't.
If we assume you have 20 points of ESG damage to assign amongst 11 drones...

You know, the more I think about this change, the more I like it.
It shifts the burden of planning onto the player who wishes to truly benefit from using EM, where previously the mere threat of EM ... |

Superb as ever, Mr Turner!
One question, though: what is that vicious green death the pirate is dealing?

This ruling does come as a surprise, I must admit. We tend to make fairly extensive use of EM in our group, so I guess we'll find out how big a difference it makes before too long. We already time our ... |

Thanks for the numbers, Paul - but I'm not sure how much mileage there is in this kind of comparison.
Don't forget Disruptors and to a lesser extent Hellbores (not to mention Photons) tend to featu ... |

I don't like the idea of resolving fire from a PPD over multiple impulses; it seems contrary to the "simpler is better" philosophy of FC.
I'm strongly in agreement with a prohibition on P ... |

Thanks. I'm slightly disappointed because I hoped it would be a restriction which only applied to the Fusion which fired on the same turn (that's how it reads to me), but there you go.

Can I ask for a clarification on the timing aspect of an ESG's anti-Hellbore mode?
To be precise: is the decision made after all Direct Fire is announced, or is it effectively part of the me-too 'b ... |
