ClarificationsSelect rulings confidence level

- When a Quantum Manipulator uses its SUSTAIN DAMAGE ability to cancel a hit produced against a ship, the Direct Hit and Reflective Shielding action cards cannot be played, as the Quantum Manipulator is not a ship.
- A Quantum Manipulator may use its SUSTAIN DAMAGE ability to cancel any hit produced during combat against the Nomad player’s ships, not just hits produced by combat rolls. For example, hits produced by ANTI-FIGHTER BARRAGE rolls may be cancelled.
- Effects that directly destroy a ship cannot be prevented with the ability of a Quantum Manipulator.
- Hits that are produced outside of combat cannot be cancelled with the ability of a Quantum Manipulator. For example, hits produced by SPACE CANNON rolls cannot be cancelled.
- During a space combat, a Quantum Manipulator cannot be repaired by the Duranium Armor technology, as it is not participating in the combat.
