| rdfs:comment | - When attacking a ship other than "Captain Rex," roll 1 fewer attack die. When you declare an attack targeting "Captain Rex" or when "Captain Rex" is destroyed, remove this card. At the end of the Combat phase, if "Captain Rex" did not perform an attack this phase, remove this card.
- In military science, suppressive fire is "fire that degrades the performance of an enemy force below the level needed to fulfill their mission. Suppression is usually only effective for the duration of the fire". It is one of three types of fire support, which is defined by NATO as “the application of fire, coordinated with the manoeuvre of forces, to destroy, neutralize or suppress the enemy.”

It is one of three types of fire support, which is defined by NATO as “the application of fire, coordinated with the manoeuvre of forces, to destroy, neutralize or suppress the enemy.” Before NATO defined the term, the British and Commonwealth armies generally used “neutralisation” with the same definition as suppression. NATO now defines neutralization as “fire delivered to render a target temporarily ineffective or unusable.”
