Tractor confusion in Briefing 1

Post by Kang »

At the top of P.48 in Briefing #1, where it says 'If two tractor-linked ships accelerate...." it infers that both ships in a tractoring pair can influence movement, whereas I thought we'd established in these forums that the 'victim' [he who used less power] cannot influence the movement. Or, is this Briefing paragraph referring only to ships who spent the same amount on base movement, as in the original rulebook [Rev.4]? It's just worded a little confusingly.....

It is only referring to situations where both ships use the same amount of energy for movement, and each ship is trying to gain the movement advantage for the impulse.
