Cumulative fleet supports?

Recommended Posts

Anyone know if there was ever an official rules FAQ regarding the use of multiple Bomber Command Centers?  Just got *slaughtered* by a group of bombers supported by (3) flotillas each carrying BCC and having the option to re-roll (3) times for each of their attacks. All the bombers were in range of the flotillas, and my opponent said that the effect stacks.  So, he basically just fished for double/crits -- and got them eventually, not surprisingly.  This seemed really unbalanced in terms of game play and caused me to wonder...maybe it's just because I lost that I felt that way!

 

If it is officially legal, I will be trying it out myself!

It is not in the FAQ.

 

 

But the Email from Michael Gerns (who is our FAQ guy) states, quite clearly, that Multiple Applications of Bomber Command stack...  As do Targeting Scramblers.

 

 

So I'm sorry you feel that way.

 

But your opponent was legit.  He paid an opportunity cost in having Bombers be more efficient, and in doing so, cut down the actual damage his ships can do...

Thanks Dras!  You make a good point about the sacrifice paid to achieve the bomber efficiency - though that thought was far from my mind when eating double crits.

 

Now that I know this is an option, will definitely give it a go sometime.

 

I do think they should address this in the FAQ so it's crystal clear (not that anyone asked me!)

Well, on that front, we were advised that they were going to get an FAQ update out soon after Wave 5 and Corellian Conflict hits, in order to account for that...  So they may do so at the same time... 

 

Who knows at this point.

 

I live in freakin' hope.
