Setup: Place obstacles as normal, excluding the station. Then, the second player places 2 stations in the setup area. Each station must be beyond distance 1 of all obstacles and beyond distance 3 of both players’ edges. Both stations are unarmed stations; place both Unarmed Station cards near the second player’s ship cards.

Special Rule: The first player’s ships and squadrons cannot resolve an unarmed station’s effect to discard damage cards or recover hull points when they overlap it.

End of Game: The second player gains 1 victory token for each unarmed station that is not destroyed. The first player gains 1 victory token and his team gains 40 resource points for each station that is destroyed. The winner’s team also gains 40 resource points if he wins the game.
