Rulings applying to this card

Rulings are official clarifications on the way ambiguous rules or card texts should be interpreted.

Changing the target of an action with two interwoven targets
Ruling issued on November 19th 2024

Situation:
A player uses the Pirate action Targeted Charge, which requires them to destroy one of their ships to destroy an enemy ship with less maximum durability. I react with the Invader reaction Swap Places, allowing me to change the target of an action. Can I force the player to destroy a different ship than the one they originally chose?

Ruling:
Yes, you can use Swap Places to change the first target. However, the second part of the action is conditional on the first. Swap Places cannot alter that condition. Therefore, the new first target must still have more maximum durability than the second target.
