Ral Nel Consortium

Faction Abilities

SURVIVAL INSTINCT

After another player activates a system that contains your ships, you may move up to 2 of your ships into the active system from adjacent systems that do not contain your command tokens.

MINIATURIZATION

Your structures can be transported by any ship; this does not require or count against capacity. While your structures are in the space area, they cannot use their unit abilities. At the end of your tactical actions, you may place your structures that are in space areas onto planets you control in their respective systems.

FAQ

Edit

Can several Linkship II use one PDS?

Yes. Linkship II can each trigger the same structure. The destroyer supply still caps how many you can have in play (8).

Do Linkships fire Space Cannon into adjacent systems if you have PDS II?

No official errata covers this yet. The tirules2 reading is that Linkships cannot fire Space Cannon against adjacent units, even with PDS II.

Does Watchful Ojz replace a normal retreat?

No. The commander retreats up to 2 ships when you declare a retreat. The rest of the fleet retreats at the end of the combat round, and those ships may go to the same system or a different one.
