Timing
This Upgrade Card may be exhausted and resolved during the “Resolve Damage” step.
Clarifications
The defender can choose and discard any defense token of their choice including any exhausted defense tokens that were spent in the “Spend Defense Tokens” step.
If an Evade defense token was discarded to resolve the Evade effect, the defender must select another available token to be discarded by this card’s effect.
A token discarded by this Upgrade Card’s effect will not resolve its normal effect.
Upgrade Card Interactions
A defending ship that has Admonition equipped (and not discarded) cannot resolve the Admonition effect by discarding a token from this card as the “Spend Defense Token” timing window has already passed.
Damage Card Interactions
The faceup damage card Faulty Countermeasures does not prevent a defending ship from discarding an exhausted defense token due to this Upgrade Card; the token is “discarded”, not spent.
