Gravitic energy grid questions

[dyssnowman]

Okay, I actually have a couple of questions, but first off the energy grid. The rulebook says that the field reduces the Damage and Crew for each seperate weapon that attacks the Drahk ship by the grids rating. This means that the grid effects all of the AD for a weapon system once, and not each individual AD, right?

For example, a Vorchan fires its plasma accelerator and twin particle array at a light cruiser, which has a grid of 2. You would roll all 4 of the AD for the accelerator and reduce the final Damage and Crew hits by two, then roll all 8 AD for the twin array and reduce the final Damage and Crew hits by two again. I am quite certain that this is the way that it works, but I just want to make sure.

My other question; is the Drahk fleet list in the book still the tournament list as well? The Tournament Pack is being used for all the other fleets, but I just wanted to make sure that the Drahk are legal as is (minus the breaching pods of course). We have a games day coming up soon, and I currently have the only Drahk fleet around, so I am thinking about seeing how much havoc I can cause. :twisted:

Thanks in advance for any and all info!

Correct

Also correct

If you're still using the tournament pack then that is correct, the Drakh (minus breaching pods) book is their tournament list. With the advent of Armageddon, nothing changes here actually other than everybody else's list is now as published in their fleet book (Dilgar) or SFoS (with Armageddon updates).

Really? Interesting... I don't have Armadeddon myself, so I had no idea. I will get in touch with the people in charge and find out how they are running it. Thanks for all the info!
