Is that a countermeasures card with the YT-2400 Freighter Expansion Pack? It's just under the unspoiled upgrade card.

Gonna take a guess, feel free to chime in:

At the start of the combat

phase, you may discard this

card to increase your agility

value by ___ until the end of the

round-------------

remove------------

from your ship.

Thoughts?

sure looks like it.

I'll bet the two world champions designed the Stay on Target and Counter Measures cards.

Cross faction card useage would mean that if it is an Agility booster, could help the VT-49 and it's 0 green

That's a reasonable assumption. I hope it isn't designed to handicap ordnance though, as its name would imply.

I could see that make it a reverse Biggs "Discard this card at the beginning of the combat phase to force all enemy ships to target another friendly ship this round if able for the duration of the phase" I would say 2 pts (we need more 2pt EPTs in this game IMO) and of course I would either A) make Biggs override this rule so you still have to shoot Biggs, or B) Biggs loses his ability for the phase in which it is activated (using this plus R2-D6 on Biggs seemed like the only major issue I would foresee happening)

It's a modification, but I see what you're saying, and I'm all for it. Guarantee one round where this ship can't be targeted. Could be super useful at a critical moment.

Fly casual - discard - skip your attack: until end of turn your ship may not be targeted by enemy ships.

Screw up your maneuver and put yourself right in the crosshairs. No problem just pop your safety measures, and laugh at the range 1 tie swarm harmlessly roll by.

Fly Casual - When your opponent makes a move or performs an action that puts him at an advantage discard this card to force him to realize that he is unsportsmanlike and in repentance must concede to you.
