In regards to General Romodi:
If the attacking ship has its commander as General Romodi and it is attacking a ship with its commander as Admiral Montferrat how does these card effects resolve?
First, if it is an attack from one ship to another, and Line of Sight is not traced over an obstacle or another ship, then Admiral Montferrat card effect will obstruct the attack. And the attacking ship will lose a die and not gain a die from General Romodi card effect.
However if Line of Sight IS traced over an obstacle or another ship, then General Romodi card effect will allow the attacking ship to not lose a die and it will gain a die.
