Q) Can the Transphasic Torpedoes upgrade (and others like it that specify only a specific ship or class of ship) be put on the Sideboard?

A) No. It may be swapped onto and off the sideboard, however only to USS Voyager. "3) Upgrades that may only be purchased for certain ship types can only be equipped onto or exchanged to that specific ship type." http://boardgamegeek.com/wiki/page/staw:reinforcement_sideboard

This follows the same logic as this ruling: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30223400/Official.jpg AParks: http://boardgamegeek.com/article/14045044#14045044

Cards like Jean-Luc Picard and Gul Dukat may use their free action after being transferred to a ship (assuming that ship doesn't have anything else preventing it from doing so, i.e. an auxiliary power token). Cards like Martok(8), Mirok and Romulan Pilot however can not (because their effects happen before the action step). https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30223400/Official.jpg AParks: http://boardgamegeek.com/article/14115468#14115468 (1) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30223400/Official.jpg AParks: http://boardgamegeek.com/article/13986413#13986413

Upgrades that cost +X points if played on a ship other than X (e.g. Cloaking Device) incur that penalty cost when placed on the sideboard. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30223400/Official.jpg AParks: http://boardgamegeek.com/article/14045044#14045044

Eliminating out of faction penalties with Khan Singh does not negate the Sideboard's auxiliary power token penalty for transferring out of faction cards. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30223400/Official.jpg AParks: http://boardgamegeek.com/article/14052037#14052037

If a ship's only Talent upgrade slot is lost (i.e. because you switched captains), any talent still on the ship cannot be used. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30223400/Official.jpg AParks: http://boardgamegeek.com/article/13857688#13857688 (2)
