Enhanced scopes- activate at pilot skill 0.

Now- set up, I was told I was wrong. Granted this is my second regional with this upgrade.

When you place ships, is it pilot skill or activation order? I've always played activation but had one guy complain. I dont think it actually mattered in any of my games though so I never asked a TO

The full wording of the card says:

"During the Activation phase, treat your pilot skill value as 0"

So that would mean that your pilot skill value is always in effect - it is just considered to be PS0 during the activation phase and at no other time.

So placement would follow normal PS rules

Yes, it is PS when you place ships.

Well, it's actually always pilot skill - Enhanced Scopes just changes the skill during a certain time
