The effect of this Defense Token has changed in Armada 1.5
Effect[]
"At long range, the defender cancels one attack die of its choice. At medium and close range, the defender chooses one attack die to be rerolled."
- While defending at extreme range (beyond the length of the range ruler), the defender resolves the long-range effect and cancels one additional attack die.
- While defending at distance 1–2, the defender resolves the effect for medium and close range.
- When a ship spends an
token while defending against a ship of a larger size class, it may cancel or reroll one additional attack die, as appropriate for the attack’s range. If it does, discard the spent token, whether it is readied or exhausted."

Timing Clarification[]
If the die, that has been rerolled due to this effect, shows an icon it cannot be spent to choose a defender's defense token. Dice with
icon must be spent during attack step 3: "Resolve Attack Effects" and cannot be spent any more during attack step 4: "Spend Defense Tokens".
