Hidden Hanger and the Shop Deck
When you play Hidden Hangar can you take a card out of the face up Shop? No. You may only pick up the face down shop deck and select a crew member from there.

Maxine Trinidad (PILOT) and Diabolical
During an attack or defense with Maxine Trinidad as your pilot you may reroll one die. Action cards/ crew effects/ armor effects may happen in-between this decision. You however may NOT use Maxine's reroll ability more than once per initial attack/defense.

Optional Dunk Rule
One slight rule modification for events like house tournaments or conventions has been to alter the rules of bombs/shields to allow for a player to use bombs/shields during the initial attack phase. There are certain armors that do benefit from this rule in other moments of the game, such as head armor Gears of Alvidon and it is a way to minimize the effect of cards like Distraction Teddy; and make cards like Duds and Misfire even more potentially effective.
