Topic: Scout and Escort on the same ship

I presume that if a ship has both scout and escort then it doesn't block the line of sight for you?

Re: Scout and Escort on the same ship

You cannot have Scout and Escort on the same ship.

However, even if you did, the scout has to be CLOSER to the target than the escort being countered.

Re: Scout and Escort on the same ship

Ok so officially you can't but the ship builders allow it (in excel).  So for a house rule, if I wanted to allow this, including the fact that these ships won't block friendly fire what would the balance implication be? 

I'm thinking that if there's a balance to maintain then you could say that only one trait could be used at a time.  A bit like when you decide to use scout for either breaking escort or reducing ECM?
