Katarn Armor timing

[Alittle852]

Is katarn armor declared during the “declare defenders” in the same way as a dodge token or can you burn it after failing 4 saves?

Hi there,

The Katarn Pattern Armor upgrade card is expended when the Clone Commandos unit would be assigned wounds. Wounds are assigned as described in the Suffering Wounds and Defeating Miniature process, after the Compare Results step of the attack sequence.

You may expend the Katarn Pattern Upgrade when the Clone Commando would be assigned wounds. It is not spent during the Apply Dodge and Cover step, but following the Compare Results step. Yes, this will be after rolling defense dice.

Hope this helps,
