Human Shield is a Dark Interrupt (Used or Lost Interrupt) from Cloud City.

Card Text

USED: If an opponent's weapon just 'hit' an Imperial present with a captive being escorted, the captive is 'hit' instead. LOST: During a battle at a site, you may forfeit any or all captives present.

Lore

A shining example of Imperial honor and bravery.


Joke

Hiding behind another person is the opposite of honor and bravery, so the lore is sarcasm. See Jokes.

Notes

The image shows Lieutenant Sheckil, played by Jeremy Bulloch in The Empire Strikes Back, holding Princess Leia in front of him.[1]

Rulings

  • For the Used function, any weapon results that would have affected the Imperial affect the captive instead.[2]
  • Weapon results that don't affect a specific character (such as Force loss) do not change.
  • A hit captive is immediately lost (even during battle).
  • For the Lost function, captives forfeit values are affected by global modifiers (e.g. Insurrection) and modifiers that affect captives (e.g. Lieutenant Sheckil).
