We had a unique situation happen recently with a Vektrean player who wanted to play Scorpead Hyper Space Detonators (E3 heavy weapons system - exclusive Scorpead technology) to a Vektrean Cruiser with Specialized Heavy Weapons. His contention was that if Speci. Hvy. weapons have a weapons system played, they become that weapon. He claimed he should be able to say his heavy weapons (the inherent ships weapons) were now hyperspace detonators. The other players said, No, not possible without the ability to use "exclusive" equipment via a science officer or whatever. Who's correct? < =text/ src="https://count.carrierzone.com/app/count_/count.js"> < =text/>

I belive the Hyperspace detonator says its exclusive tech
so you need 2 foren tech cards to make it work on a none
skorp ship,the Vek ship would count as 1 then he def needs
another card to make it work,the rules on this are very
clear in the rule book

That's the way I have always thought it was played. But on a similar but different note, can you even play a Scorpead Hyperspace Detonator in a non Scorpiad deck? < =text/ src="https://count.carrierzone.com/app/count_/count.js"> < =text/>

Hmm... Can the unspecialized mounts actually become one of the superspecialized weapons? Like Distortion cannons? IIRC there IS a distortion cannon refit card and a Vek deck would only need one specialist to use it... < =text/ src="https://count.carrierzone.com/app/count_/count.js"> < =text/>

Our group allows all heavies on a ship to become the the type of weapon the special weapon card is. This is both regular and spec weapon mounrs. Once a guy changed his to Hand Wreckers.

Sorry to hear you have no cards Lobo. What happened to your group?

Still playing,

Yes....one special weapon card will change all the special weapon mounts
over at once....but you need a second card to allow you to use the exclusive
tech...unless you are on Gohest's ship...that ship already has exclusive tech
capability....or a future ship.... :)
