Redirect Defense Token Question

By Grand Marshal, in Star Wars: Armada Rules Questions

Hi all,

Can a redirect defense token be used to redirect damage taken from one shield to another adjacent shield? Or is this defense token only able to redirect damage taken to a HULL and sent to a shield on an adjacent hull zone? Please let me know your interpretations of this rule and thank you!

No interpretation needed, page 4. Any amount of damage on the adjacent hull zone, to the limit of shield remaining. So if you take 2 damage, you can redirect all of that to an adjacent zone, reduce that zones shields by 2. You will sill have your shields in the original defending hull zone.

• Redirect: The defender chooses one of its hull zones
adjacent to the defending hull zone. When the defender
suffers damage from this attack, it may suffer any
amount of damage on the chosen zone’s shields (up to
the shields remaining on that zone) before it must suffer
the remaining damage on the defending hull zone.
