Talk:Stay on Target/@comment-27666888-20161018130215/@comment-454133-20161018184008

After discussing with a friend in the outernet, we realized there's possibly a weirdness here. It depends a lot on how Stay On Target actually works, and how effects trigger on the new vs old color. If you reveal, say, a white maneuver while stressed, and then Stay on Target it into a red maneuver, does that trigger the "reveal a red maneuver while stressed"   rule ? In other words, is the maneuver you revealed   now white or red,  for the purpose of game effects that trigger on the color of your revealed maneuver?

Here's the new text:

"A stressed ship cannot execute red maneuvers or perform actions. If a stressed ship reveals a red maneuver (and cannot use a game effect to rotate its dial or execute a non-red maneuver instead), the owner moves the ship as if it were a white [󲁞 2] maneuver instead."

Does changing the revealed maneuver change the color of the maneuver for effects that trigger on a specific color being revealed? It's actually kind of odd to me. If the answer is yes, then stress + Stay on Target + BB-8 + Nien Nunb gets exciting because you technically revealed a green maneuver, triggering BB-8.

But if instead changing the maneuver doesn't change what you "revealed", just what you perform, then that means Stay on Target has always let you perform a red maneuver while stressed without penalty (other than another stress token). This means a Stay on Target ship could always choose a white or green maneuver, change it to a red maneuver, and not worry about stress (other than missing actions).

I seem to remember some text or another that made this more explicit, but haven't found it yet. In fact, in the new FAQ the Revealed Red Maneuvers section on page 6 still hasn't been changed to reflect the rules update on page 2 (they no longer choose your maneuver for you), nor has the normal game rulebook. We could interpret all this in a lot of pedantic ways.

There be dragons.
