And the " Destroying ships" section in case of simultaneous fire :

Note the added coma, that changes the meaning of the sentence.

So TA-175 is now giving calculates immediatly after the droid is destroyed, and not when removed from the table as before.

Q: If a ship is destroyed, when are effects that trigger upon its destruction resolved?

A: If it was destroyed during an attack, these are resolved during Step 6: Aftermath. Otherwise, these effects are added to the ability queue immediately (even if the ship would not yet be removed, such as due to the Simultaneous Fire rule or a card effect).

I skipped that, thanks. So this is indeed perfectly clear.

Sharp eyes on that new comma! I like that that and the addition to aftermath language makes it so the clarification isn't just 'cuz we said so' it's literally a clarification of what the new language changes. :)

Also pertains to Raymus Antilles: "After you are destroyed, each friendly ship at range 0-1 gains 1 focus token. After you are destroyed, you are not removed until the end of the End Phase."
