Sequence of Play
Repeat the following steps until end of warp occurs.
Step 1: Enemy Arrivals
Refill empty slots in enemy row so there are four enemies.
If not enough enemies left, refill as many as possible.
Step 2: Pilot Actions
Use tokens from pool to take as many actions as you wish.
| Action | Steps |
|---|
| Fire Lasers |
Place one laser token below an enemy.
It is now stunned and will not attack this turn.
Count total value of laser tokens assigned to the enemy.
If total >= hull stat, enemy is destroyed. Gain destroy reward (on left of enemy card) and put tokens into bag.
Discard enemy and any tokens on it
|
| Perform Maneuvers |
Place one maneuver token below an enemy.
It is now stunned and will not attack this turn.
Count total value of maneuver tokens assigned to the enemy.
If total >= speed stat, enemy is evaded.
Gain evade reward (on right of enemy card) and put tokens into bag.
Discard enemy and any tokens on it |
| Repair Shields |
Discard one energy token. Increase shield meter by token value x 2, up to max.
|
| Use a Power Token |
Use one power token for its effect.
|
| Buy Tokens |
Discard one or more energy tokens.
Gain one or more new tokens from the supply with a cost <= total value of energy discarded.
|
| Activate a Skill |
- Assign one or more tokens to a skill card.
- If skill's requirements are met, it is now activated.
- If skill is ongoing, stays active. Otherwise, remove tokens when skill is used. Turn skill card sideways to show that it is exhausted.
- Can be used once per warp if cost is paid.
|
| Move Tokens | Can freely move tokens between pool and hold, respecting max hold capacity. |
At end of this step, discard any remaining tokens from pool.
Step 3: Enemy Attacks
One at a time, from left to right:
- Check to see if enemy has tokens below it.
It so, it is stunned. Ignore it completely for now.
- If not stunned, take damage = enemy attack value.
Reduce shield by 1 for each damage.
If shield at 0, reduce hull meter instead.
- For each damage dealt to shields, remove one token from discard pile from the game.
- Move any tokens from below an enemy to the space above it.
(Enemy damaged but no longer stunned.)
- If mothership can attack, resolve attack from each section.
Step 4: Pilot Plans
Draw 5 new tokens from bag and add them to your pool.
If can't draw 5 because bag is empty, end of warp occurs.
End of Warp:
- Return all tokens in play back to the bag. NOT FROM HOLD.
- Pool
- Discard
- Enemies
- Mothership
- Skills
- Retrieve all cards from row and discard pile. Shuffle them and place face down on enemy deck.
- Refresh exhausted skills. Draw two more and choose one to keep.
- Advance warp marker.
- Refill token pool with five tokens drawn from the bag.
