Just a little unsure .... If your leader or base has same aspect as a card, then no penalty for playing it. I mean just 1 aspect in common with either one?
yeah if card you want to play has an aspect that either your base or leader has then you just pay base cost. If not it costs more, not efficient at all, most decks dont take aspect cards they have to pay extra for. Only Hera as she can play ''Spectre'' cards for base cost.
Hi Evan, In answer to your second question. Your leader will deploy into battle ready to attack, however unless that specific leader has ambush, then you would have to wait until your next activation until your leader could attack. So that being said, timing is everything.
Hi Evan, Thank you for your question. To answer it, no Event cards do not work like instants in magic. Magic instants you can flash in at anytime whether it be during your turn or your opponents turn. In SWU the event cards can only be played one at a time in normal action sequence, just the same as you would a sorcery in Magic.
