Fighters and Stealth

[wierdo]

O.k., I know the rules say that fighters within 2 inches of an enemy ship ignore the Dodge and Stealth traits (if applicable) so I take it that means that a flight over 2 inches away needs to roll to beat the targets stealth score to lock on?

Also, does this count for reduction of a targets Stealth or is it only other ships that can reduce the Stealth score?

yes A fighter over 2" away needs to beat the stealth score, and yes, I believe it does get the ability to reduce stealth

 

[Da Boss]

Fighter weapons don't ignore dodge unless they are accurate weapons

 

[Na-Po]

1) Only fighters IN contact (or on top of a ship counter) may ignore the Stealth (the 2" rule is for anti fighter not stealth)

2) Yes a fighter attack counts as reducing Stealth for the next attacks (of any of your ship)

3) This bonus ends immediatly if the fighter is destroyed
