Cards represent actions the ship can take each turn. Cards have different, scripted effects and costs during the Prologue.

Attributes

Cards may have the following attributes:

  • Deplete: Removed from battle when played.
  • Hack: Effect applies if target has 0 Security, otherwise removes 1 Security.
  • Ignite: Hull Damage adds Heat to the enemy ship but is reduced equal to Dissipation at the end of the turn.
  • Ion Damage: Only deals damage to shields. Hull damage inflicts equal Ionize instead.
  • Ionize: On enemy, every 6 Ionize remove 1 pip from a random card. On player, every 6 Ionize reduces Reactor Power by 1 during the battle.
  • Missile: The damage is dealt the following turn.
  • Ongoing: Persistent Effect removed if equipment is disabled.
  • Precision: Able to target enemy equipment.
  • Security: Protects against enemy Hack and increases the effects of Hack cards.
  • Shredding: Each stack of Shred increases minimum Flak damage by 1. Counts down on turns with no Shredding applied.
  • Upkeep: As long the condition is met the card's Persistent Effect will remain active.
  • Upgrade: Grants a permanent Persistent Effect to the user and is removed from battle while its Persistent Effect is active.
