Stims

By AintNoPoser, in Star Wars: Legion

In our escalation league, we had a player use the emergency stims on Han. Han would've died if he did not use the stims. The question is, he had no more activations before he used it and used it at the end of round. Question is, does the damage move to Han at the end of the round, end of the players first activation or at the end of Han's activation. Needing to know before Thursday.

The key question is who does "you" and "your" refer to.

In FFG games, I think “you” always refers to the card (or the card that equips the card) and not the player. Though I don’t have confirmation that is the case in Legion, it is the case in x-wing, Armada, and imperial assault.

Precedent thus far has been that “you” refers to that particular unit. It pretty much has to, otherwise lots of things break down. I don’t think there is anything in the game so far that breaks from that trend.

So if Han uses stims in the 6th round after he has already activated, there is no window for him to suffer those wounds. He effectively becomes an 8-wound unit in that case.

Edit: to more directly answer your question: Han would suffer the wounds on the stims card at the end of his next activation.

It has to mean the unit equipping the upgrade, because "you" the player never suffer wounds (unless you grab a card and get a paper cut).

Crap, I've been physically hurting my opponents when they play that card next unit they activate. I've lost a lot of friends and opponents due to misreading the card thinking it was them that gets the wounds.

This is correct.
