Just checking if it is possible to use an Emergency Decel to get your sat ships on board mid-turn if their baseline speed was above 8? From what I can read it isn't but wanted to confirm that's the intention? |

Based on the wording of (5V1b5), which says that the satellite ship cannot have a baseline speed above 8 for "the turn", I agree with your reading. No, you can't do that. _________________

Thought that was the case, shame it makes them insanely hard to use in pop up mode now. Oh well adjust tactics again! |

I do plan on checking on that. I don't know that it is a necessary restriction, and may not have been intended. But that is the ruling for now. _________________

Not a worry Mike and thanks for the quick reply and for looking into it, if it is, such is life, I'll find a way to work around it! That's the fun of restrictions after all |

Yeah, the fighter pickup rules were changed to be relative to the "now" speed based on hexes moved. Seems like this is also a candidate for that. |
