Raknar Posted August 18 Posted August 18 The wording on the secondary objective, Destroy Enemy Base, states "At the start of the End Phase, if one or more friendly units holding a Bomb are contesting an enemy Base that you are securing, remove all Bomb tokens held by friendly units contesting that Base from the game. Then that Base is destroyed and removed from the battlefield." As the words contesting and securing are both used, with the latter being the active tense, does that mean that you need to just be trying to secure the base to score it. In other words, if you have a unit contest the enemy base but the enemy is still secures it, does this effect happen and the card score or do you need to both secure and then contest the enemy base.

As the words contesting and securing are both used, with the latter being the active tense, does that mean that you need to just be trying to secure the base to score it. A unit is contesting an objective token when its unit leader is at range 1/2 of it and not panicked. A player is securing an objective when they have more units contesting it than their opponent. There is no "trying" to secure an objective; you are either securing it or not securing it. Please refer to the Objective Tokens entry for more detail. ----------------------------------------- 25 minutes ago, Raknar said: In other words, if you have a unit contest the enemy base but the enemy is still secures it, does this effect happen and the card score or do you need to both secure and then contest the enemy base. You must be securing the Base token (POI) and have a friendly unit with a Bomb token (Asset) contesting that objective token to score VPs as described by the Destroy Enemy Base battle card. If the enemy is securing their own Base, you are not securing it, and will not score any VPs using that battle card that End Phase. Hope this helps, Seth
