    Keep forgetting dreadnaughts cost 4. Edited original post.

    @discrider, your orders would cause the 2 Fighters built with your last action to immediately be scuttled due to lack of support: you already have 3 Fighters supported by the Space Dock.

    They should have all moved with the War Sun?

  • discriderdiscrider Registered User regular
    Yeah. @MrBlarney your map has the fighters in the wrong spot.
    They are all currently in Tar'mann

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    That'd do it. This is why we check things.

    ... righto.
    Was thinking I should have moved that into the nebula, but it's not where I thought it was

    Pass.

    @MrBody

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    @Lykouragh's turn was skipped, as Naalu follows Winnu in the action order.

    Activate the nebula beneath Mecatol Rex and move in one carrier (using gravity drive) from New Albion/Starpoint with 3 fighters. T->0

    Round 5 - N'orr movement into Naalu Home System

    Pre-combat actions

    N'orr has 1 Exotrireme II, 1 Carrier II, and 3 Fighters (holding 1 Infantry)
    Naalu has 1 Cruiser, 1 Destroyer, and 1 Hybrid Crystal Fighter II.

    Naalu has 1 PDS unit in the system eligible for Space Cannon fire.
    Naalu uses Anti-Fighter Barrage with their Destroyer.
    (I probably should have rolled for Space Cannon Offense before this, but it shouldn't make a big difference.)

    Geth roll 1d10t6 for Naalu Space Cannon
    Geth roll 2d10t9 for Naalu Anti-Fighter Barrage

    Naalu Space Cannon:
    1d10t6 1 [1d10t6=6]
    Naalu Anti-Fighter Barrage:
    2d10t9 0 [2d10t9=2, 7]

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    Naalu Space Cannon scores 1 hit. @MrBody, how will the hit be allocated?

    The dreads are move 2. Gravity Drive gives one ship 1 extra movement.

    What could possibly go wrong with using gravity drives to move large ships quickly?

    That 6 should be a miss for the space cannon since I have anti-mass deflectors.

    Ah, that's right. No hit, then.

    N'orr scores two hits, which are negated by Naalu's play of Action Card "Shields Holding":

    Shields Holding
    Before you assign hits to your ships during a space combat: Cancel up to 2 hits.

    Pausing for reactions from N'orr.

    Let the galaxy know the Queen Mother's mercy in not destroying the Naalu's home space dock!

    Invade & bombard Maaluuk with both infantry

    Hold on just a moment. Both infantry? You only brought along one, from Tequ'ran? I interpreted that part of your action orders as
    (carrier + all fighters) and (infantry from Tequ'ran)
