ACTION: You cannot attack this round. During the next activation phase, you cannot move and take any actions(including Free Actions). At the end of the next Activation Phase, after all ships have moved, destroy your ship and roll a number of attack dice equal to your hull value to damage every ship within Range 1-3 of your ship. A ship does not roll defense dice against this attack unless that ship has a [SCAN] token beside it.
Since this occurs outside the combat phase, can [EVADE] tokens or [BATTLESTATIONS] tokens( if opponent also has a [SCAN] which let him roll defense) be used to mitigate damage from this? Thank you.
