Regarding the Clan of Saar and Warfare 2. | Twilight Imperium (third edition): Shattered Empire

Conor Hopkins

Just a question that came up in one of our games that we found tough to resolve; Do the Clan of Saar's space docks get a +1 to movement with the High Alert Token? My gut feeling was no, as they don't seem to be considered ships, and the Warfare card specifies +1 movement and attack for ships only. Would be great if anyone can clarify this/prove that I was right and the other player was wrong.

Cheers,
Conor

A: Saar Space Docks are not ships. Card text and abilities
referring to ships do not apply to Saar Space Docks. Saar
Space Docks are immune to space mines, and Saar Space
Docks may not retreat or be placed on high alert.

This is correct. The fact that the space docks are not ships also means that Flank Speed and Gravity Drive do not work either.

Grand so, my suspicions that one of our players was incorrect seem to be confirmed, thanks again.

I wouldn't be too hard on him, this is another strange caveat that is the halmark of TI's inconsistent ruleset.

Keep in mind that both Antimass Deflectors as well as Manouvering Jets apply to Saar Space Docks, so there's a precedent for Gravity Drive to work with them as well.
