Card text

After deploying fleets, you may move each obstacle at distance 1-3 of that token to within distance 1-2 of that obstacle’s current location. Obstacles cannot overlap tokens, obstacles, or ships.

Timing
This Upgrade Card may resolve before deploying fleets, but after obstacles are placed. It resolves obstacle movement after deploying fleets.
Clarifications
Obstacles moved with this Upgrade Card’s effect are restricted from overlapping tokens, obstacles, and ships only at their final position. If an obstacle overlaps one or more squadrons, move any overlapped squadron out of the way and place the obstacle. Then the player who is not moving the obstacle places the overlapped squadrons, regardless of who owns them, in any position touching or overlapping that obstacle.
An obstacle moved with this Upgrade Card’s effect can be rotated or flipped; however, no part of that obstacle can be beyond distance 2 of the object’s original position.
If an obstacle with an objective token or proximity mine on it is moved, that objective token or proximity mine remains on that obstacle in the same position. If the token or mine is bumped, moved, or falls off after final placement, the opponent should place that token nearest to the original placement.
After deploying fleets, if the ship with this Upgrade Card equipped is not in play (because it has been set aside), that ship’s owner cannot resolve the remainder of this Upgrade Card’s effects.
The Grav shift token remains in the play area until the end of the game.
Objective Interactions
During the Doomed Station objective, if an obstacle is moved by this Upgrade Card so it is touching the Gravity Rift, the obstacle is not removed as obstacles are only removed during “End of Round”.
