A non-unique squadron that is activated by Nevoota Bee and is destroyed during its activation (for example, during a Counter or Salvo attack) can be replaced by resolving Reserve Hangar Deck’s effect.

When a squadron is destroyed and replaced in the play area by Reserve Hangar Deck, the opponent does not score points for that squadron. Only squadrons that are destroyed and are no longer in the the play area by the end of the game are able to be scored.

Reserve Hangar Deck’s effect may resolve when a friendly objective squadron is destroyed (such as a squadron added by Pilot Defection).

If a player chooses to resolve Reserve Hangar Deck when a squadron is destroyed, the squadron is still considered destroyed in order to resolve General Grievous (Commander) effect.

The squadron’s position when it was destroyed would be used when determining distance for General Grievous (Commander) effect, not the squadron’s position after being placed by Reserve Hangar Deck.

Community rulings

All efforts must be made to place the squadron unengaged. If this is not possible, then the squadron may be placed engaged with as few enemy squadrons as possible.
