Topic: Rules Questions

Hi All,

Just getting back into Starmada - excited about actually playing Unity soon.

Some questions:

1) Do countermeasures work against Seeker flights?

2) If using drydock v2 and the ability to have up to 5 different range bands - when firing a weapon defensively (via the defensive trait) what range band is used (main rules is to use "Medium" range)?

3) There seem to be several weapon traits in Drydock v2 that aren't listed in the main rulebook.  Are these from the SFU adaptation?  Is there one of those books that has all the info, or do I need to pick up all three?

Thanks,
-Tim

Re: Rules Questions

1) No. "Rules that apply to fighters also apply to seekers, unless explicitly noted otherwise." (p.41)

2) This is not a "rule" as of yet, since the new drydock is still in beta testing. However, the intent is to use the closest range band for defensive fire.

3) The weapon traits in Drydock 2 that aren't currently defined in the Unity rulebook will be described in a separate post as soon as I get to it.
