|
|
I have a couple of points about the Command Cards in Orion Attack.
Firstly, although there is a 'Baseline = 32' card, I find it odd that there is no 'Stopped' card, even though 'Stopped' is a valid speed for Fed Comm whereas 32 is not at present.
I therefore will be using the 32 card as 'Stopped'.
Secondly, why is there an 'Accelerate' card? Is not Accel performed using the 'me-too' rules, and therefore is not subject to the simultaneous written orders that these cards replace? _________________

The Death probe can have a baseline speed of 32.
And as far as i know yes Accel and Decel are done as me too. |

Thanks for that, Saved. IIRC, the Death Probe is fixed at Speed 32 [but I may be wrong].
The context in which I'm referring to Decel as not being me-too is this one:

As far as I know, Accel is me-too, Decel is not. Which begs the question, then, why is there an accel card? Hmm.... _________________

the Death probe can choose whatever baseline speed it wants (0,8,16,24,32) and you are correct about decel it is done at the time of movement. |

Ah - I stand corrected. Don't have the rules in front of me..... _________________
