Commence Recharging is a Light Effect from A New Hope.

Card Text

Deploy on Superlaser. To fire Superlaser at a planet, opponent must first 'charge' it by accumulating 8 Force cards here. When fired, Effect is canceled. If Effect canceled, accumulated Force is placed in Used Pile.

Lore

The huge strain on the little-tested power generator matrix of the superlaser's fusion reactor can require full recharging before the system can be used again.

Rulings

• The cards are stacked face down without revealing them.
• If canceled, player whose turn it is may put the stacked cards in Dark's Used Pile in any order (since the cards cannot be seen, reordering them may be useless).
• The X Force needed by Commence Primary Ignition must also still be paid as usual.
