NK-7 and Anti-Squadron Fire

By Edsel62, in Star Wars: Armada Rules Questions

Can the NK-7 Ion Cannon's Blue Critical ability be used to strip a defense token from a named squadron during anti-squadron fire?

And yes, I do still live. I moved and the last few weeks have been a frenzy of packing and unpacking.

No.

• Squadrons cannot resolve or suffer critical effects unless otherwise specified.

Bomber, for example, is "otherwise specified."

Nk-7 does not specify anything about "squadrons", therefore it's critical effect does not effect them under:

• Squadrons cannot resolve or suffer critical effects unless otherwise specified.

IF NK-7 had said something like "You may exhaust this card to force the defending ship or squadron to choose and discard 1 of his defense tokens" Then that would be specifying.

Exactly what I was saying, only more verbose :D
