Dragon_King 159 Posted February 19 (edited) soo... the cap's wording: After an enemy ship suffers damage, if it is not defending, you may perform a bonus attack against that ship. the homing missiles wording: Attack (TL): Spend 1[charge] . After you declare the defender, the defender may choose to suffer 1 [hit] damage. If it does, skip the Attack and Defense Dice steps and the attack is treated as hitting. My question: Can the missile trigger jostero? Does the opponent sill count as defending, even if he chooses to take the hit?

The missile's target becomes the defender the moment you declare him as the target, so no, no matter which option the target chooses, the attack is still made and he's the defender for the entire resolution. 1 Dragon_King reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ysenhal 295 Posted February 19 Homing Missiles cannot trigger Jostero. The damage happens after the enemy ship is declared the defender, Homing Missiles actually refers to it as "the defender", and the attack doesn't finish until after the damage has been suffered. 1 Dragon_King reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lyianx 1,434 Posted February 19 I think the only missile/torpedo that can trigger Jostero is Diamond-Boron Missiles, on other ships than the defender. Jostero does like bombs, mines and ships being tractored onto rocks tho 3 nitrobenz, TedW and Stoneface reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, but Scum does not have a Ship with two Rocket-Slots :( 12 minutes ago, TedW said: Don't forget Z-95s with Deadman's Switch - jank power! I tried it with Feedbackarray on Z's. But did not trigger alot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not that Nantex would necessarily tractor themselves onto a rock, but it was talked about before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theBitterFig 11,598 Posted February 19 It's worth noting that Homing Missiles--even if the opponent skips the dice and takes the damage--still follows all the other rules for attacks. The #4 Neutralize Results step happens, even though it's essentially irrelevant. This allows Fifth Brother to add a crit, which will be dealt the #5 Deal Damage step, and the #6 Aftermath step will happen after this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
