Timing
This Upgrade Card’s effect may resolve before the attacker rolls dice during the “Roll Attack Dice” step.
Clarifications
This Upgrade Card’s effect is active whenever a small or medium base ship’s speed dial is at 3 or higher.
Squadron Interactions
This Upgrade Card’s effect does not affect squadron attacks.
Upgrade Card Interactions
Attacks made by a ship equipped with Jaina’s Light ignore this Upgrade Card’s effect as those attacks cannot be obstructed.
If an attacking ship is using General Romodi’s effect, and the defending ship is using this Upgrade Card’s effect, the attack does not benefit from General Romodi’s effect unless line of sight is traced over an obstacle or another ship.
This is because General Romodi’s effect only triggers if the attack “is obstructed by a ship or obstacle”. This Upgrade Card’s effect is a card effect that causes obstruction (not a ship or obstacle). However, if line of sight is traced over an obstacle or another ship, then General Romodi’s effect would allow the attacker to ignore obstruction and add 1 red die to the attack pool, regardless of this Upgrade Card’s effect.
