YT-1300 fire arc

[Portage 21]

Is the fire arc of an YT-1300 just in front or 360 degrees?

I only ask because of the Outmaneuver Pilot Talent.

It is the normal 80° front. Printed on the cardboard.

thank you

To clarify, it DOES have a 360 arc, but for cards such as outmaneuver, it only counts the front arc.

To clarify, it DOES have a 360 arc, but for cards such as outmaneuver, it only counts the front arc.

Actually, it does not have a 360 degree arc. It has a perfectly normal (~80 degree) arc. It just happens to have a primary weapon that can target outside of its firing arc (same wording as ion cannon turret and blaster turret).

Yeah, turret weapons still have a regular front arc, but can target ships outside of their arc.

Firesprays, by contrast, have a rule that specifically says they have an additional arc to their rear.

Those two have it.  ^ ^ ^ 

The Falcon, as an example, has a normal firing arc, but a turret ability that allows it to target ships outside that firing arc.

It still counts as a standard firing arc for things like secondary weapons, Backstabber, etc.

 

The Firespray, on the other hand, has what I believe the rules refer to as an "auxiliary" firing arc, which counts as a normal firing arc in all aspects of the game except secondary weapons.  
"When attacking with a secondary weapon, the ship 

must still target an enemy ship inside its standard firing 

arc (unless otherwise specified on the Upgrade card)."

It is probably also worth noting that the special rules coving these atypical firing arcs (and all the other large ship rules that have been added to the game) have now been added to the official FAQ so that even people who don't have both a firespray and a falcon can read the differences for themselves.

In addition to the above, some ships do not have a firing arc. Which means you are never outside the firing arc. That applies to the rebel transport and the cardboard shuttle from the core game.
