Wave 0 - USS Reliant - Superior Intellect

[skyguard]

No, Superior Intellect would allow you to exceed your ship's restrictions. But, it does not allow you to exceed the Upgrades restrictions on where it may be deployed.

Does this ruling mean that if Superior Intellect is used against a unique Upgrade that you would have to discard it if the using ship already had a unique version of that card?

ie Ship with [Captain] Spock using Superior Intellect on [CREW] Spock or Ship with [CREW] Spock using Superior Intellect on another [CREW] Spock

No, only that you must follow the deployment restrictions within the card text of the card stolen or of the card text of the ship or any cards deployed to the ship the stolen card is being deployed to.

Does this ruling also apply to non-ship restrictions, such as "Tholian Puncuality" which states "May only be purchased by a Tholian Captain"

This ruling would apply to all restrictions within a card's text.
