Ruling

A ruling is an official clarification on the way an ambiguous rule or card text should be interpreted.

Using a conditional action after it has failed
Ruling issued on November 19th 2024

Situation:
I have the Neutral ship Mobile Base in play, which can use an action up to once per turn. I activate its action, but an opponent uses the Terran reaction Power Surge to cause it to fail. Since the action did not actually happen, can I use it again?

Ruling:
No. Even though the action failed, the Mobile Base's action has already been used for the turn, so it cannot be used again this turn.
