Question about Nexu's Bleed Ability

By El_Tonio, in Imperial Assault Rules Questions

The nexu's deployment card has the bleed special ability. When exacty does this kick in? For example, when it attacks does the target automitaclly take a bleed token? Or, does the attack have to hit for them to receive a bleed token.

Currently I'm thinking they take it regardless of if the attack succeeds or fails since no condition is stated (i.e., it is not preceeded by a special action, threat, surge, or strain symbol). But, it is quite possible I'm missing something somewhere.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

EDIT: See mobile on Probe Droid or +? Accuracy / +? block on several cards (like Rebel Saboteur or IG-88/Luke Skywalker respectively). These are things that just happen. I'm thinking the Nexu's bleed just happens when it attacks but am open to alternative explanations.

If the Nexu attacks and deals damage, it automatically inflicts bleed.

RRG page 9:

• Conditions are sometimes used as keywords. When an attack uses a condition as a keyword, the condition is applied using the following rules:

- The target of the attack must suffer one or more [Damage] for the condition to apply.

- The condition is applied after the attack resolves.

- If it is a Beneficial condition, it is applied to the attacker. If

it is a Harmful condition, it is applied to the target figure

Also check the "Bleed" Condition Card itself

Yeah, but "Accuracy" and [block] are not Condition keywords
