Undercover (Dark) is a Dark Effect from A New Hope.
Card Text
Deploy on your spy at a site and cross spy to opponent's side. Spy is now Undercover. If at a site during your deploy phase, may voluntarily "break cover" (lose Effect).
Lore
The Empire maintains a network of spies attempting to infiltrate the Rebel Alliance or disinform their operatives.
Rulings
- If the character is persona replaced by a non-spy version, Undercover is lost and the character ceases to be Undercover.[1]
- The Undercover character prevents the opponent from Force draining at same site, and allows the owner to deploy to same site even without presence or Force icons. These benefits are the same even if the Undercover character is a droid.
- The Undercover character is inactive (for example it does not participate in battles) but outside of battle it may be targeted by Interrupts and anything that could make it dueled, hit, or lost.
- The owner may voluntarily break cover during their deploy phase.
- If the character's cover is broken (either voluntarily or by another card such as Corran Horn), then Undercover is lost.
