My Republic ship has just taken 8 Damage to the nose from some evil Separatist vessel. No accuracies were rolled and I have both a brace and a readied redirect available.
Kenobi is my commander and I use both the Brace & Redirect to move the damage to the port shield. So.….
Is it 8 Damage redirect becomes 7 and then brace becomes 4 shield damage?
Or
Is it 8 Damage Braced to 4 and then redirected resulting in 3 shield damage?
