Hey guys, this was brought up in a question on the rules forum here a little while back, but I am having trouble understanding this interaction.

Say I have a ship target locked with Sunny using HLC. I roll blank, hit, hit, crit. I change the crit to a hit like HLC says, then reroll the blank using the TL to a hit. Would I be able to then use Sunny's ability to add a fifth hit result?

Yes, his (her?) ability works after a roll or reroll, as stated in the card.

The slightly contentious point is if your roll is hit hit hit crit can you convert the crit then add a hit - and I'm pretty sure you can as the two effects have the same timing so you choose the order.

That is correct

Thanks for the replies. I was just curious about the question I asked as in my example I changed the crit to a hit, however I didn't use Sunny's ability on this first roll (as I still had a blank result to go with the three hits) which would've happened simultaneously with HLC trigger. Instead I had to wait after changing the die from HLC till after my reroll so I wasn't sure if this stopped Sunny's ability.

You can wait to use Sunny's ability until you reroll the dice with the HLC, so no, it doesn't stop her ability.
