Kraken can use this ability only once per activation when a friendly ship is attacking an enemy ship, and if another friendly ship is at close-medium range of the defending ship. During the “Resolve Attack Effects” step.

You can change a die in your attack pool to a face with a single icon showing. Meaning, you could change a die to a single hit icon, single critical icon, or accuracy icon. You could not change this die to a blank face, a double hit icon, or a hit/crit icon.

Kraken can use this ability when a friendly ship is defending with Salvo against an enemy ship and you also have another friendly ship at close-medium range of that enemy ship. Once per activation applies to enemy ship activations as well.
