One flight or six fighters???

[cheirisophus]

This is a pretty appalling oversight -- nowhere in any of the books or supplements can I find a sentence which explicitly states whether a flight of fighters makes six attacks (one per fighter), or just one! Which is it?

Also, I cannot find a sentence anywhere that says that an entire flight is killed with one hit, not six. That SEEMS to be what happens, but I can only find hints. Which is it?

From what I understand is they attack as a unit, and they die as a unit, they get one attack, which is the culmination of the six fighters attacks, so those stings have a chance to do real damage, and they die as a whole when they get overcome, I assume that to mean that beams are flashed to the targets, or its a concentrated but dispersed volley of fire, I figure if they take any casualties they would be a ineffective unit, and for sake of simplicity they are counted as destroyed.

Erm it seems to be pretty clear to me, auxilliary craft make one attack and die to one hit. The number of fighters on the base is irrelevant thats up to you how to base them. One base = 1 unit in ACTA ALWAYS.

All references are to one 'flight' of auxilliary craft. The statlines are for a flight. Note that at times this varies between 1 and 6 fighters.

Otherwise it would need to tell you how many fighters were needed on the flight.
