Evade Tokens

By Sir Orrin, in X-Wing

I have been playing this game for quite some time now, but I just realized I might be getting this rule wrong.

When you use an evade token, waht does it mean by add an aditional Evade result? I thought that meant change one of your defense dice to an evade result, but does it mean add and evade result. for instance, if I get 3 evade results with dice, could I spend and evade token to get 4? I really want to get this rule right before I play competitvly.

if I get 3 evade results with dice, could I spend and evade token to get 4?

Yes.

Adding an evade is the same as placing an extra green die with an evade result that cannot be altered or re-rolled but may be canceled (for example crack shot)

When you use an evade token it is as if you placed an extra dice with the evade side up next to whatever you rolled. This analogy applies to some effects like autoblaster that say defense dice cannot be used to cancel hit results as well.

Thanks!

When you use an evade token it is as if you placed an extra dice with the evade side up next to whatever you rolled...

According to the newest FAQ, you are supposed to do exactly that:

"Dice Results
To add a die result, place an unused die displaying the result next to the rolled dice. A die added in this way is treated as a normal die for all purposes and can be modified and cancelled."

so an evade result with an evade token would not help against autoblaster? :/

Nope

Is this a change? I swear I remember reading that added results could not be modified only canceled. Am I crazy or did they change this? Can't think of too many cases where it matters currently though.

edit- Doesn't help R4-B11 because attacker modifies before defender spends tokens. Anyone think of a place where this matters?

might have added it when they added ATC into the game.
