My opponent received the crit. that the ship can not preform straight maneuvers. He revealed the k turn however, he could not complete the maneuver and he had to preform a straight maneuver.

My thinking, is that it would be similar to rule about the preforming a red maneuver with a stress token, were as I would get to chose the maneuver.

What would you do in this situation?

Thanks,

A failed k-turn is not the same thing as a straight maneuver. It's still a k-turn (still gives stress, etc).

Also, pay careful attention to the wording of the card: the ship may not be assigned straight maneuvers, the card says nothing about performing them. So an ion token's 1-straight maneuver would still apply as normal, etc. The only thing you can't do is put a straight maneuver on your dial.

I completely agree with Peregrine, it's about choosing the straight maneuver when placing your dials, nothing about bumping/ion

This. FFG is great about wording things tightly. It can make things a little tricky to learn at first, but is awesome when you start to recognize their phrasing.

Totally agree.
The only thing that I'd add is that we have a YMTC forum stickied at the top, and rules questions belong up there.
