- If the player with Promise of Protection in their play area resolves a transaction with another player, the Mentak player may still use their PILLAGE ability on that other player.
- Promise of Protection has no effect while it is in a player’s hand.
- Promise of Protection is returned when the system is activated, even if the active player will perform no hostile acts towards the Mentak player this turn.
- Activating a system containing only the Mentak player’s structures will still cause Promise of Protection to be returned.
- If an effect other than activating a system during a tactical action places a command counter in a system with the Mentak player’s units (for example, the primary ability of the Diplomacy strategy card), this will not cause Promise of Protection to be returned.
