Another great vid! Since I am new to Armada, I appreciate the tutorials and ship breakdowns. I would like to make a small suggestion. You have an Armada playlist on your channel that has 270+ videos on it. It would be great if you separated the playlist into different categories like Tutorials, Ship breakdowns, Builds, etc. It would help in the search when looking for certain videos insofar as to not have to go through them all in one list. Again, thanks for all you do!

So, question. In your double broadsides video, you imply a few situations where the ship is technically 'in arc' but is not dot to dot, and thus an invalid shot. Does that mean that we measure only the *defending arc* as being in arc, rater than the entire ship? For example, an Assault frigate nestled in close to an SSD and it's arcs juuuust about clip the forward and aft Arcs . . . but it doesn't have a dot to dot on them. Can it then not fire on the auxiliaries because they are out of arc? Despite having direct dots?

I forgot to mention yesterday that I had slicer tools on gozanti flotilla. Have you ever seen slicer tools running with mandal gauntlet fighters? If so, what was the result? If it is effective, I think it would be the only time I would use slicer tools as they stand today, to switch the command to the added raid token and render the ship commandless for one turn. What do you think? Thanks!

Great vid. Sorry to nitpick. The base is part of the ship and does count for range. Page 9, range & distance. “At: if any portion of a hull zone, base, or token is inside a specific band, that component is at that band.” You almost gave me a heart attack.

@porksammich56736 жыл бұрын
jacob blackman thanks Jacob. I think this is another example of requiring a law degree to play the game. Page 10 under ‘ship’ identifies the base as being plastic. Unless the rules are completely explicit you end up having to cross reference different areas of the rule book.

Hey Crabbok, Great video as usual but I do have a question. At time 9:37 you say that when you attack, line of sight cannot pass through the defender's arc line. However at time 17:00 you show a squadron clearly doing this to attack the front of the ISD. Did I miss something?
@Crabbok6 жыл бұрын
At 17:00 the squadron's shot does NOT pass through the line. Its is the PRINTED line only that we are concerned with in this case.... as for line of sight we do not have to extend that line beyond the cardboard.
@boomertde95646 жыл бұрын
@@Crabbok Okay, got it. Firing arcs DO extend out to infinity as shown with laser pointer. For the purposes of line-of-sight though, the arc is the physical line on the cardboard and only for the defender. This is a confusing topic. Thanks for the quick reply!!!
@Phreekful6 жыл бұрын
For dot-to-dot LOS verification, I know you can't cross the defender's arc lines, but does that include an imaginary extension of the arcs beyond the cardboard base?

@stempunked96883 жыл бұрын
Your videos and those of SWAE are my go-tos when it comes to trying to wrap my head around this game. Something is confusing me greatly about Firing Arc and Line of Sight. The instruction video by Downsizeit called "Star Wars Armada - Tutorial and Tactics Series - Comprehensive Introductory Tutorial" at time 1:46:20 seems to contradict what you are saying in your above video at time 10:22. Above where you (correctly in my opinion) say that you cannot make the shot from the Victory's starboard side to the Corvette's port side because the Victory would cross it's own side arc, Downsizeit says that such a shot can be made because attacking players ignore their own firing arcs (or at least that is what I understand him to say) and only have to pay attention to defender firing arcs. I am further confused by an image I found on the Star Wars Armada Fandom Wiki (starwars-armada.fandom.com/wiki/Measuring_Firing_Arc_and_Range?file=Fire-Arc_Line-of-Sight.png) Panel 2 seems to show that a Corvette is able to make a legal shot at a Victory by tracing a LoS across the Victory's own firing arc. Can you help me understand what I appear to be misunderstanding? I would think that the example from Wiki image is incorrect. My reasoning is that even if you can SEE a point on a ship you want to hit from where you are standing (LoS) that doesn't mean your guns can swivel around far enough to get a bead on that point. The firing arcs show the limit of the "view" and even targeting from the perspective of the weapons, so it would seem to me that you should not be able to fire across your own firing arc.

_sorry, wait. @__18:03__ although dot can see dot, the nebulon front arc is only... 57°... so you would not be allowed to shoot anything outside those limits, the laser you've shown depicts a shot that would be far beyond that imaginary 57° cone at the front of the ship... no?_ ...Does that mean that if you can just trace a line between dots that don't cross the hull zone of the *TARGET ONLY* and just to the extent of their cardboard print out... then it is a valid shot?
