As a follow up (again not having my rule book) if (4F5c) really actually says -or if A hits B- then I believe this makes drones way over powered. For example say I am closing with a drone user with 4 ...

I am not sure why one would say that you must decide to cloak out on impulse one. Since other functions come before launch a ship planning on cloaking can do it the impulse before they enter 25 hexes ...

Phaser damage, as you mentioned, is applied where every 2 points of damage reduce the warhead by 1 point. So in your example of 7 damage to the S and 5 damage to each of the F Torpedoes your damage i ...

Also remember that no rule operates in a vacuum, they all interact. In this discussion the other rule that seems to be the key point (forgive me I do not have my book with me to site the rule number) ...

Also beyond just the timing (first full power launch turn 2, 2nd launch turn 5) is the mind set that not having fully armed weapons imposes on one. Not having fully armed weapons forces me as a plasm ...
