Please disregard, I answered my question.

It wouldn't be a terrible idea to reinstate it, for the sake of others who might have wondered the same thing?

Fine, a bit modified.

say I have my awesome six dice Interceptor roll against, oh, Tycho. I manage to somehow roll 2 accuracies, and Sloane is in command.

Can I force Tycho to spend his scatter twice, thereby discarding it?

No.

It is a "While" trigger, which means you can only spend 1 of them for Sloane's effect. In effect, you could do the scatter once, but the other accuracy would have to be spent in the usual way - it can;t be used by Sloane.

Thank you Dras, this is why I had deleted it, as I had figured it out....lol. Thanks for confirming.

No worries. If nothing else, having a question / answer is a record for people to search... Shouldn't ever feel stupid for asking a question, after all

I'll add on to this post.

If you roll 1 accuracy and spend 1/2 ships Scatter; can the defender use the other or since the one has been spent it counts as that defensive token type being spent for the defender's turn?

As I tried to cover previously - only the defender is under the restriction that they can only spend one of each token each turn.

So the Attacker can spend a Token, and the Defender can spend a Token of the same type - as long as it is not the exact same token, its good.

Thank you. I thought that was right, but I 'm not around the rule book and couldn't find if it was stated as defender or just token and I know this is the first upgrade of this type; and I know that you, Undead or GK (and some others I am forgetting) are crazy fast onanswers.

Why can't the defender spend the same token that the attacking Sloane player spent?

Easy One to miss


Check the wording difference between these two rules - both are on Page 4 of the RRG.




• The defender cannot spend more than one defense token of each type per attack.

• A defense token cannot be spent more than once during an attack.

- The second point, the fact that a defense toen cannot be spent more than one during an attack - is not defender based, like the oether.

So if Sloane spends it during an attack, by spending her ACC result - the Defender cannot use it that attack, as it has already been spent.

But if, for eample, a ship has 2 redirects and Sloane spends one... The Defender can spend the other, because the restriction on two of the same tokens being spent is on the Defender, and they didn't spend the first one - Sloane did.

Good observations. Thanks.
