Rules questions
Answered from the rulebook by Ludoya's rules assistant.
When I launch to the Nethervoid, do we resolve a normal battle?
No. Roll the launching ship’s battle dice and choose one die as the result; this is not a battle, so you don’t follow battle steps. Energy, cards, and effects that modify battle dice or targeting may still apply (p. 5).
If a nebula has two moons, can I claim both when I launch there?
No. If you use both sets of nebula moons, shuffle them together and place two in each nebula, but a player launching to a nebula with two moons may claim only one (p. 5).
How do relics score at the end of the game?
Count relic icons on modules and moons on your station. They score 2, 5, 9, 14, or 20 VP for 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 relics, respectively (pp. 5, 12).
If we use Shadows of the Void, do we also have to use the Nethervoid and Void Drake?
Yes. The rulebook recommends using that event deck with the Nethervoid and Void Drake as a set; put the Nethervoid in its marked board space and start the Void Drake on it (p. 4).
Does Unity collect and spend resources like a regular player?
No. Unity gains no resources other than tactics cards, and whenever it would gain a resource, it takes a tactics card instead. Unity doesn’t pay resource costs or play tactics cards (p. 7).
