Fleet Book Rules Q

Subject: Fleet Book Rules Q

Here's something that came up in tonight's FFA game that needs an
"official
ruling" and a FAQ entry.

Heavy Fighters vs. Class-1-Beams-as-PDS
---------------------------------------
The behavior of Class 1 beams used as PDS firing at Heavy Fighters ("4's
have no effects") is undefined.  Since Class 1 beams vs fighters
normally
only hit on a 5&6 anyway - doing 1 kill on success - "ignoring 4's" is a
NOP as written.

We SWAG'd a rule that the Class 1 "PDS" against Heavy Fighters only hit
on
a roll of 6 - which properly 'degrades' the effectiveness in a manner
similar to those suffered by the regular PDS, but I would like an
official
ruling on this :).

TIA!
