I thought that I read somewhere that the card is played as though it was a
full combat situation, i.e., Drones, spells, gear, etc. are all used. This
may not have been specifically about this card, but I think that it applies.
If I can find the reference, I will post it. Maybe someone else will help
me out here, yea or nay?
