TychoCelchu505 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 If you attack a Strained target with a Homing Missle/Torpedo, and the target chooses to suffer the [hit/crit] damage in lieu of rolling dice, would the Strain token be removed? "After you declare the defender, the defender may choose to suffer 1 d damage. If it does, skip the Attack and Defense Dice steps and the attack is treated as hitting." "After a strained ship applies the effect to roll 1 fewer defense die this way, it removes 1 strain token." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim H Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 A strained defender, who is being attacked with a Homing Missile/Torpedo and chooses to suffer the Hit/Crit damage would not remove a strain token during the attack. A strain token can be removed in one of two ways, 1) A ship executes a blue maneuver or 2) A strained ship rolls one fewer defense die while defending during an attack. Since the choice of suffering a Hit/Crit results in the defense dice step being skipped and no dice being required to be rolled, a token would not be removed.
