Card Text

Capital Ship Pilot. The Capital Ship gets: * Accuracy 1. * When this Capital Ship attacks, if the defending unit isn't discarded, discard Needa.

Usage Notes

If piloting Executor (C), Needa's "discard himself" ability will apply to both the first and second defending unit chosen. If one or both of the defending units are not discarded, Needa will be discarded. If only one unit is chosen as the first and second defending unit, from my ruling above, all damage counters from the damage done by the two sets of attack dice will be applied all at once after both sets are rolled. There will then be only one opportunity (or check) instead of two to see if Needa will be discarded.

Keywords

Accuracy
Accuracy X/-X: A cumulative, static ability that means, "Add X to each of this unit’s attack dice." and "Subtract X from each of this unit’s attack dice." respectively. Accuracy can’t alter "natural" rolls to affect Critical Hit, Fury, or Parry, but it can affect your chance against Armor. If a unit gets the Accuracy ability after you roll attack dice, it's too late to affect the hits.
Pilot
[sub-type] Pilot: A layered, static ability written as "[sub-type] Pilot. The [sub-type] gets:… ." that means, "You may move this card onto or off of a non-Droid Space or Ground unit of the correct sub-type once during the build step. Ignore all other text on this card except its name, sub-type and health. The piloted unit can't have more than one Pilot." Treat all of a unit's Pilot abilities for a sub-type as a single Pilot ability for that sub-type. It grants abilities to that unit alone. See the "Pilots" section of the rules PDF for more info.
