Rules question - Power Drain when in reverse

[McKinstry]

We are in mid-game and this issue has come up. A ship going in reverse while executing a special order that requires a power drain:

A - Can't

B - The 4" reverse move satisfies the requirement that a ship has moved less than 6"

C - The ship can only move half (2") to satisfy the requirement

D - The only way to satisfy the power drain requirement when in reverse is the weapons limitation

We have always used option B in our group.

same here i use option b "six inches is six inches" i dont think the reverse limit of 4 inches is do to power consumption as much as over coming forward momentum.

 

[Da Boss]

B seems the sensible option

 

[billclo]

I'd go with B as well.

We use "B" also.
6 inches = 6 inches and simplicity is the key.

B!

B it is. This might be an add for the FAQ.

 

[Captain Jonah]

Which, the "Official" one or the "Unofficial" one :lol:

B it is. This might be an add for the FAQ.

It isn't - one question does not a FAQ entry make. It seems quite clear there was a logical consensus on this one.

So can I add this to the "Unofficial" one then in case it comes up again :lol:
