| - | ===== Replacement Effects ===== | ||
| - | Some abilities are substitutive in nature—they replace how an effect would normally resolve. These abilities use the words “would” and “instead.” | ||
| - | * Replacement effects are not added to the end of the ability queue as they are resolved at the timing of the effect they are replacing. | ||
| - | * When a replacement effect resolves, the replaced effect is treated as having not occurred. | ||
| - | * For example, Jyn Erso’s ability says “If a friendly ship at range 0–3 would gain a focus token, it may gain 1 evade token instead.” If this ability is used, an effect that triggers after a ship gains a focus token cannot trigger. | ||
| - | * If there are multiple replacement effects that could substitute for the same effect, only one effect can be substituted for the original effect. | ||
| - | * For example, a ship is about to gain a focus token and has both the ability “Before you would gain a focus token, gain an evade token instead” and the ability “Before you would gain a focus token, gain a calculate token instead.” Only one of those abilities could be resolved. | ||
| - | ===== Paying Costs ===== | ||
| - | A ship can pay a cost for an effect only if the effect can be resolved. | ||
| - | * For example, GNK “Gonk” Droid’s ability says “Action: Spend 1 <ff xwing> | ||
| - | * Replacement effects can replace a cost that a ship would pay for an effect. If a cost is replaced in this way, the effect is still resolved. | ||
