Heavy Blaster Emplacement

By AussieJedi, in Star Wars: The Card Game - Rules Questions

Hey there everyone.

Was playing a game where I used the Heavy Blaster Emplacement and I enabled the Action :" Focus this enhancement to have your opponent deal 1 damage to a unit he controls".

My opponent was adamant that he could select which unit he wanted to.

I believed that I could "command" that he put a damage on a unit and I would select the unit.

It caused a very, VERY heated discussion, could someone please help.

The opponent decides which unit is damaged

have your opponent deal 1 damage to a unit he controls

This.

Since it doesn't tell you to choose a unit, it is up to your opponent to decide where the damage goes.

Thanks guys. Does this also apply to Log Trap from the Tribal Support pod?

A great pod, and yes, it has the same wording:

"Focus this enhancement to have your opponent place 1 focus token on 1 attacking unit he controls."

If you're looking for something where you and not your opponent chooses, the wording will be slightly different, but clear in time. Like the Defense Protocol objective for DS, #30:

"…reduce your reserve value by 1 to deal 1 damage to a target unit."
