Clarifications
When a ship equipped with this Upgrade Card declares an enemy squadron as the target of an attack, if that squadron is not engaged with a friendly squadron, before moving on to the “Roll Attack Dice” step you may replace all blue dice in that ship’s anti-squadron armament with red dice.2 This allows anti-squadron attacks at long range.
Ships may use this Upgrade Card effect to attack proximity mines; proximity mines cannot be “engaged” by squadrons.
Upgrade Card Interactions
A ship with Quad Laser Turrets equipped and this Upgrade Card has an anti-squadron armament of 1 blue die during Counter attacks and would be able to replace it with a red die.
Targets at distance 1 of Instigator may still be affected by this Upgrade Card, as they are not engaged with any friendly squadrons.
