Intercept Interference

In Standard games generated on or after January 1 2021 (Nu year 121), the Evil Empire has equipped all Super Star Cruisers (including the Super Star Cruiser II) with a device which disrupts some Intercept missions. This feature can also be enabled in Custom games and on the second-generation Cruiser in Campaign matches.

• Intercept — No change.
• Priority Intercept Attack — The Intercept will operate as normal, but the combat priority will be ignored.
• Cloak and Intercept — The Intercept lock will be lost and the result will be a failed mission.
• Recloak Intercept — No change.

If a ship begins the turn at the same location as the Super Star Cruiser, this new protection affects all vessels which belong to the same owner. When the Interference source or other potential victims are targeted by a Priority Intercept Attack or a Cloak and Intercept mission, this ability is automatically activated; no special Mission or Friendly Code is required for Intercept Interference to function.
