Overlapping

[steve68 5]

Hi guys

I'm new to this game system but a very experienced gamer. I have played a few games and still learning stuff but enjoying the adventure.

I have a question about overlapping. In the rules it says you receive one damage card however I was watching a game which had been videoed on the Internet the other day and they were giving damage based on speed. So if they did speed two the gave 2 damage. Is this right? I've read the rules and it says one damage but it does say repeat until there is space to put your ship even if down to speed zero.

Sorry about the thick question.

Whoever was assigning extra damage based on speed was either playing a house rule or doing it wrong. Probably a house rule.

Overlapping is one facedown damage card each.

Another possibility is that they were using Engine Techs, which allow you to execute two separate maneuvers in the course of one activation and this cause two separate collisions with the same ship as a result of what could appear to an inexperienced admiral to be traveling at higher speed.

But yeah, if all is as you describe it, probably a house rule.

Thus my dislike for house rules.

But you could probably overlap ships in the setup area at the start of the game without getting any damage cards....

Meh, they added it to the FAQ in the way I thought they would.

I'm just teasing about it all....

 

Let's face it, the suggestion is our own little armada rules forum meme.

Guess I have to live with that.
