Talk:Docking Clamps/@comment-26411770-20160513194337/@comment-26972511-20170713124639

" I wrote a support mail for rules questions and FFG threw another case of consistency out of the window by saying that you can dock TIE f/o and TIE together, so here's more exceptions that make no sense. Yay! "

I just checked the newest FAQ that FFG posted on their site. Either the support person was trolling you, or they thought they would errata it in and didn't. As it stands:

The name TIE Fighter and TIE7/fo Fighter are different, just like the name "YT-1300" and "YT-2400". They are similar in design and purpose, but they are indeed different ships. Until FFG releases errata to state something like "all ships using the TIE Fighter Form factor can be docked using the docking clamps", I will refuse to allow people to do it.

But nothing is stopping you from doing it in your own games with the people you know, as long as you all agree.
