Is the timing of this card considered to be between the "Modify Defense Dice" step and the "Neutralize Results" step, or does it happen within the "Modify Defense Dice" i.e. "The attacking player resolves their abilities"?

It says "after" right on the card...

So after the modify defense dice step. And before neutralize defense Dice.

Hotshot Turret Gunner is basically a "Use it or lose it" token puller. It can be brutal when equipped on high init turret boats, less useful as an upgrade on low init pilots.

Opps
