Romulan cloak question

A condor is turn 8 or 9 cant remember off the top of my head. and if it cloaked it can only move 6. Does that mean it can not turn while it's cloaked?
 
If you want to turn under cloak you need to be flying a second hand klingon DN that they sold for scrap or hauling garbage (or Romulans)

Or you could just not bother with the cloak. If you want to field mighty warships and destroy your enemies with Plasma go Gorn.

Gorn are clearly the best Plasma race in the Verse :lol:
 
This is one of the shortcomings of the effort to keep the system simple. In SFB crippled ships turn modes get a little worse IIRC, but they are not prohibited from turning. When porting things over to ACTA this got missed. This applies to ships with turn > 6" as well as crippled ships (double turn mode and 6" max move when one or the other would have been fine). Our group is considering trying to playtest a house rule to allow tracking remaining straight movement from a previous turn (using a 5mm die placed on the ship's base). Has anyone else tried this?

To be fair it did not get missed - the choice was made to keep it simple and avoid uneccasary tracking of data - especially in larger games and with elements such as tracking defensive fire is already quite intensive / time consming for the ACTA system.

However House rules are always good for what different groups like :)
