Deepwrought Scholarate

Faction Abilities

RESEARCH TEAM: When ground forces are committed, if your units on the planet are not already coexisting, you may choose for your units to coexist.

OCEANBOUND: When your units begin coexisting on a planet, gain an ocean card and ready it. Any time you have more ocean cards than there are planets that have your coexisting units, discard ocean cards until you do not.

Components

Component Type	Component Name	Description	Flavor Text
Ocean Card	Deep Abyss	A card equivalent to a planet card that has resource and influence values 1/1.	The Abyssal zone features such dramatic pressure that even most Hylar need assistance to survive in the lightless depths.
Ocean Card	Brine Pool	A card equivalent to a planet card that has resource and influence values 1/1.	Sites with unique oceanic chemistry are of obvious interest to Deepwrought researchers.
Ocean Card	Coral Reef	A card equivalent to a planet card that has resource and influence values 1/1.	Coral-analogues have evolved on many worlds, and their "reefs" are always areas of intense biodiversity.
Ocean Card	Ice Shelf	A card equivalent to a planet card that has resource and influence values 1/1.	Drylanders frequently discount the scientific opportunities to be found beneath their own polar ice sheets.
Ocean Card	Lost Fleet	A card equivalent to a planet card that has resource and influence values 1/1.	Although usually badly degraded by water and time, shipwrecks remain fascinating areas of exploration and study, whether those ships sailed seas or stars.

FAQ

Edit

Is the Deepwrought Commander, Aello, optional?

No! Once it is unlocked, any player may use it, whether or not the Deepwrought player wants them to.

If Deepwrought Scholarate is the controller of a planet and an opponent commits ground units to it, can Deepwrought trigger Research Team to avoid combat even though opponent wants to still initiate combat?

Dane has ruled the answer to be yes, they can use research teams to avoid combat as long as they were not already coexisting. See SCPT episode 443 for this and other coexistence clarifications.

If a player has the Deepwrought Scholarate's alliance, can other players benefit from Commander Aello twice?

Yes, and if Mahact is in the mix, the discount can apply thrice, as each player utilizing the commander ability composes a separate ability.

If a planet of a player has no ground forces, can it be chosen by the Deepwrought agent so you gain control of it?

No. You cannot trigger coexistence on a planet that does not have units on it.
