Third New Samarkand Regulars (Regular)[1]
- CO: Tai-sa Furio Saavedra
Rules[edit]
Up to 4 times per game, the player controlling the Third can choose to automatically succeed at any roll using the pilot's Gunnery or Piloting Skill (considered to have hit the target number exactly). However, for each such success used, the opposing player can declare any other Gunnery or Piloting Skill roll to automatically fail (considered to be 1 below the target number). The decision to automatically succeed or fail must be made before the roll is thrown.[1]
Notes[edit]
- Only mention of the unit is in Dark Age Turning Points: Vega
- It is thought to be disbanded during the actions on Vega, as their survivors are seen to be used to form the 20th New Samarkand Regulars[2]
