"If a ship executes a maneuver that causes any part of its base to go outside the play area (beyond the edge), then that ship has fled the battlefield. Unless specified by the Mission Overview, ships that flee the battlefield are immediately destroyed"
Escape Pod
When your ship is destroyed, before removing it from the play area, place 1 Escape Pod Token in the play area within Range 1 of your ship and then choose your Captain and/or up to 2 your [crew] Upgrades and place them under this card. Do not discard these cards with the ship.
Escape Transporter
When your ship is destroyed, before removing it from the play area, you may discard this card to target a friendly ship at Range 1-2 that is not cloaked and disable all of that ship's remaining Shields. Select up to 3 other Upgrades that were deployed to this ship and redeploy them to the target ship, even if it exceeds that ship's restrictions. If any of the redeployed Upgrades were already disabled, they remain disabled. This upgrade may only be purchased for a Federation Shuttlecraft.
If a ship "flees the battlefield" and is destroyed may I use the Escape Pod or Escape Transporter to rescue my upgrades?
