FAQ

Edit

Q: How many times per combat round can the COLLATERALIZED LOANS faction ability be used?

Q: How much extra movement can the Midas Turbine faction tech and the Vaden Handshake promissory note grant to a single ship or pair of ships?

Can I take control tokens that players have placed on my faction sheet with the Binding Debts faction ability and hand them back?

No, these debts are binding. Various faction components specifically tell you under which circumstances those tokens can be removed from the sheet (eg.the start of the status phase, or the Collateralized Loans faction ability, among other effects). There are no game effects that allow you to transact control tokens (see LRR 94.3 “ Players can exchange commodities, trade goods, promissory notes, and relic fragments, but cannot exchange other types of cards or tokens.”)

Can BINDING DEBTS be paid multiple times in the status phase?

No, only once for each neighbor.

Can BINDING DEBTS be paid with commodities?

No, only clean cash.
