Magnite Crystal Tractor Beam Array [ N
Card Text
After the end of your activation, you may exhaust this card to choose 1 enemy ship at distance 1-5. That ship's speed is increased or decreased to match your speed.
While your speed is 0, you cannot ready this card.
Timing
This Upgrade Card may be resolved at the end of the ship's activation.
Clarifications
- The targeted ship's owner changes the ship's speed, not the player triggering this Upgrade Card. [1]

Card Text
Modification.
Ignition [Long]
Ignition Red T: Each other ship at distance 1 of the defender suffers 2 damage, and each squadron at distance 1 of the defender suffers 1 damage.
Timing
This Upgrade Card may be resolved during the Resolve Damage step.
Clarifications
- The damage inflicted by this effect granted by this Upgrade Card is not an attack, it is a critical effect. Therefore this damage cannot be reduced or cancelled by defense tokens, nor can any card effects that involve moving or reducing damage 'from an attack' be utilized. [1]
- When this Upgrade Card causes a ship to suffer damage, it is suffered on one chosen hull zone chosen by the defender. [1]
- This Upgrade Card cannot cause a proximity mine token to suffer damage, as it is a token and not a ship or squadron. [1]
Objective Interactions
- This Upgrade Card will affect unarmed or armed stations at distance 1 of the defender to suffer damage. Stations are treated as a ship when resolving effects. [1]

Card Text
Modification.
Ignition [Medium]
Ignition Red T: The defender suffers 1 damage. This occurs once for each red or blue T icon in the pool.
Timing
This Upgrade Card may be resolved during the Resolve Damage step.
Clarifications
- The damage inflicted by this effect granted by this Upgrade Card is not an attack, it is a critical effect. Therefore this damage cannot be reduced or cancelled by defense tokens, nor can any card effects that involve moving or reducing damage 'from an attack' be utilized. [1]
- Because the wording of this Upgrade Card is 'this occurs once...', the defender will choose a new hull zone (or the same hull zone) for each instance of damage triggered by this Upgrade Card. [1]
Upgrade Interactions
- A ship defending against an attack using both this Upgrade Card and XI-7 Turbolasers may suffer each damage from this Upgrade Card's critical effect on any of its hull zones, one at a time. The XI-7 effect will prevent the defender from redirecting more than 1 of the the total damage dealt during the 'resolve damage' step. [1]

Modification.
Ignition [Long]
When you perform an ignition attack, you may exhaust this card and spend a defense token. If you do, after the modify dice step, discard all attack dice. For each matching die face, resolve the following effects:
S: The defending hull zone loses 1 shield.
T: Each hull zone adjacent to the defending hull zone loses 1 shield.
Timing
This Upgrade Card resolves before the Spend Defense Tokens step.
Clarifications
- This Upgrade Card grants Ignition [Long] permanently unless it is discarded by an effect such as Darth Vader Boarding Team. Exhausting this card does not change the range effect. [1]
- Because this Upgrade Card occurs before the Spend Defense Tokens step, no defense tokens may be used to modify the attack. [1]
- This Upgrade Card cancels all attack dice before the Spend Defense Tokens Step, so Point Defense Ion Cannons has nothing to reroll. [1]
- The damage suffered by this Upgrade Card's effect only affects the shield values of a ship; it does not cause any damage to a ship's hull. That shield damage is suffered before the damage total is calculated, so it cannot be blocked by card effects such as Major Derlin or Seventh Fleet Star Destroyer. [1]
Upgrade Interactions
- Thermal Shields may be used as normal against this Upgrade Card. [1]
- The effect of this Upgrade Card occurs after a 2 Token is spent via Barriss Offee, but the effect of this Upgrade Card is resolved before the Spend Defense Tokens step, so Barriss Offee cannot change which hull zone this Upgrade Card's effect targets. [1]
- Adi Gallia's effect is for Defense Tokens spent during the Defense Tokens Step, and resolves after this Upgrade Card's effect. [1]
Counter and Salvo Interactions
- Salvo cannot be used against an Ignition Attack. [1]

Clarifications
- This Upgrade Card permanently gives the ship it is equipped to Ignition [Long] unless it is discarded by an effect such as Darth Vader Boarding Team. [1]
- The effect of this Upgrade Card can trigger off of any crit, and is not restricted by the color of the die. [1]
Squadron Interactions
- If this Upgrade Card's effect is used, all friendly and enemy squadrons at distance 1-2 of the defending ship must have their activation slider toggled to the activated side. [1]
Counter and Salvo Interactions
- Salvo cannot be used against an Ignition Attack. [1]
