Talk:Overlapping Ships/@comment-2405:7F00:881B:E000:39FF:E32:3F01:74A1-20180512005045/@comment-454133-20180512053740

Correct, huge ships receive a faceup damage card when they overlap another huge ship (both the bumper and bumpee get a faceup card). Being assigned a damage card is different from suffering damage normally -- it does go straight through shields. See  for more effects like that.

In fact, today I played Epic with RAC (Crew) on my Gozanti, and it and my opponent's rebel transport ended up nose to nose. Because RAC is a maneuver and ramming doesn't cause huge ships to skip actions, they did 3 faceup damage cards to each other each round (I moved, I moved again, he moved) and the crits became brutal. :D  Had this continued (instead of the game ending with him giving up -- his fleet was mostly dead -- and assuming I didn't shoot his transport), I'd have died with all my shields intact, taking him with me. ^_^
