How do you enter from Hyperspace in battle?

[Captain_Nemo]

Could someone please help with this, I am confused about "Forward Arc" and how much the arc, is where it faces and What restrictions there are coming out of the cone.

Thank you.

Take a look at the jump point and jump gate counters in the back of the rulebook. Forward arc is between the two lines, ie a 90 degree arc.

Ah! Sweet!

I didn't see those there Thank you, Greg.
Is there a minimum distance that you need to travel?
A fellow player says that fighters coming out of the jump point can go anywhere up to the speed of the fighter flight because fighters are
Super Maneuverable. I think that they should travel at least 2 to 4 inches because Jump Points are vortices.
Can they just go up to max speed from the Jump Point?

There is no restriction on movement distance - so for ships at least 1/2 of their regular movement, as usual; no restriction for fighters.

Are you positive about the fighters ? I thought since fighters are (usually) regarded as ships now they would have the same movement/firing penalties for Jumping as other ships using another ship's Jump Point.

 

[Greg Smith]

The question was about restriction on movement distance. However you are correct, fighters should follow the same restictions, ie no turns and no firing unless there is a scout.

They should be able to turn though. Only the ship creating the jump point is unable to turn.

I wasn't clear earlier. I was really commenting on the original post which seemed to imply that they weren't using any of the other restrictions that jumping fighters have.
