Alekzanter 442 Posted April 18, 2017 Everyone raves about it. But... "When another friendly ship within range 1..." But not herself? Checked most recent errata/FAQ, nothing. Yeah, she can be within range 1 of self, but she can't be "ANOTHER friendly ship". Help, please? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DR4CO 6,234 Posted April 18, 2017 You are correct; Howlrunner cannot use her own ability. 4 Quarrel, Faux Dameron, ObiWonka and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forgottenlore 9,838 Posted April 18, 2017 X-Wing is all about action economy and what howlrunner does (when flown with a swarm) is basically provide a target lock for seven TIE fighters. 4 DR4CO, Parravon, VanorDM and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, it's a 1 die reroll, so that's half a target lock. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, you are at Range 1 of yourself, but you are not other than yourself. There are abilities in the game that you can use on yourself or another nearby ship, but Howlrunner is not among them.
