Several Espionage Cards now read that you can Cancel the effect of an Advancement card as it is being used.
This means that the immediate current effect is canceled and ignored, but this doesn’t Exhaust the Rival’s Advancement and they may still use it on later occasions.
Example:
The Cardassians and Andorians are fighting a Space Battle. During the first Round of Combat, the Cardassians use their Sensor Ghosting & Holo Projections Advancements to force the Andorians to reroll all their Hits.
In response, the Andorians use their Subspace Intercepts to Cancel the effect, thus not having to reroll their Hits.
On subsequent Combat Rounds, the Cardassians may still use their Advancement, as Canceling the effect doesn’t Exhaust the Advancement itself.
