Timing
This Upgrade Card resolves in the “Spend Defense Tokens” step.
Clarifications
This reduction shares the same timing as Brace, so the defender can choose which effect is resolved first.
The defender must be able to spend the Redirect token, so an accuracy could prevent this Upgrade Card effect
from triggering.
Upgrade Card Interactions
This Upgrade Card’s effect does not take the place of the standard Redirect effect. As such, cards that do replace the standard Redirect effect (such as Expert Shield Tech or Reactive Gunnery) would be able to stack with the effects of this Upgrade Card. If a ship had all three cards it would have to choose between the latter two, in addition to this Upgrade Card effect.
A defender cannot spend more than one defense token of each type per attack. For example, a defender cannot spend one Redirect token to resolve the Redirect effect and a second Redirect token to resolve Reactive Gunnery to trigger this Upgrade Card twice.
Damage Card Interactions
The Capacitor Failure critical prevents the spending of a Redirect token and would prevent this Upgrade Card’s effect from triggering.
