| CA | You have the power of Speed. Each time any other player takes a second encounter during his or her turn, use this power to add a token to this sheet. After the end of any encounter (even your own), you may discard three tokens from this sheet to immediate have one encounter. Afterwards, play resumes from where it left off. Alternatively, at the start of a player's second encounter, you may discard two tokens from this sheet to immediately end the encounter. |
The Lightning live out their lives in a matter of hours. They move so fast that the rest of the universe seems to act in slow motion to them. More than one alien race has sneered at the short lifespan of the Lightning, only to find themselves taken over in a flash. |
