Hey all,

I had a quick question about Cavil and his primacy ability. The syntax in the description is a bit confusing and I thought I should clear it up. When reading the card it seems that every time he puts out a basestar he may then immediatly put out three raiders and a civilian ship. However, grammatically the description could be read that he puts a base star out OR when he chooses to remove it he may then put out three raiders. We were not sure which interpretation we should go with. Anybody know for sure?

Thanks in advance for any help, I really appreciate it.

happy gaming,

Napoleon.

The second one. You can choose to do the raider/civilian thing regardless of your placement/removal of basestars.

ah...thats actually the first option I listed that you described.

Basically it boils down to this, Can Cavil with his Primacy ability put out the cylon raiders and civilian ship regardless of him putting out a Basestar or taking a basestar away? OR must he remove a basestar in order to place the three raiders and civilian ship.

Ah, I misread your phrasing of the second option. You can place the raiders and civilian no matter what you do regarding basestars.

Excellent. Thanks Anthem, that was the ruling I made on the card at the time of the debate. But wanted to be sure...

Thanks again.
