Card Text
When you draw a card, if Chewbacca is in the Character arena, remove 1 damage counter from one of your Space or Ground units.
Pay 1 Force Retaliate 2
Usage Notes
Chewbacca's ability to remove damage counters triggers whenever you draw a card, whether that is during your draw at the beginning of your build step or as an effect that happens at some other time. But his effect doesn't resolve until all cards are drawn and the card draw effect ends. For example, If an ability causes you to "draw 2 cards then discard 2 cards," Chewbacca (B)'s damage removal effect triggers for each card drawn, but doesn't resolve until the draw effect resolves after 2 cards are discarded.
Keywords
- Retaliate
- Retaliate X: A layered ability activated during the attack POP that means, "If a unit in the same arena as this unit is attacking this unit, this unit does X dice of damage to that unit when the attack ends." A Retaliate ability without an activation cost has a printed cost of "Pay 0 Force -->". Retaliate resolves when the attack ends, even if your unit gets discarded. Retaliate dice are just dice of damage, not attack dice, and can trigger Stun. Retaliate based on a unit’s power is based on its total power at the time the Retaliate is activated. Retaliate doesn't work with attacks from another arena (such as Bombard and Ion Cannon) or the build zone. A unit may retaliate against itself if it attacks itself. Each Retaliate may be used once per attack. Each defending unit can activate Retaliate during the attack POP, which resolve in their order when the attack ends, even if the retaliating unit is discarded.
