Card text
While a friendly ship is attacking a ship, if the defender is at distance 1-5 of at least 2 other friendly ships, 1 other friendly ship at distance 1-5 of the defender may spend 1 defense token. If it does, the attacker may reroll up to 3 dice.

Clarifications
While a friendly ship at distance 1-5 of at least 2 other friendly ships is attacking, during “Resolve Attack Effects”, another friendly ship at distance 1-5 may spend 1 defense token. Even if the other ship is at speed 0, it may spend a token, as only defending ships are not allowed to spend defense tokens at speed 0.
You cannot use this ability when attacking squadrons or proximity mines.
Damage Card Interactions
If a ship has the Faulty Countermeasures critical card (“You cannot spend exhausted defense tokens.”) it may not spend its defense token to allow another friendly attacking ship to resolve this Upgrade Card’s ability if it has no readied defense tokens. If the attacking ship has the Faulty Countermeasures damage card, it may still choose another friendly ship at distance 1-5 and resolve this Upgrade Card’s ability even if it has no readied defense tokens.
