Card Text
Pivotal Gambit
Card type: Fremen card.
Cost: 3 (persuasion; shown as the diamond at the top right of the card).
Agent ability: Trash this card → gain a troop, AND add an icon to the first place reward for this conflict. The top band of the card shows the trash arrow, a troop cube, and the word "AND" between the two halves of the ability.
Reveal ability: Gain 1 persuasion and 2 battle points. The bottom of the card shows a blue diamond with the number 1 (persuasion) and two red swords with the number 2 (battle points).
Card notes
The "add" clause in the agent ability shows a reward icon in the card's text. Neither the card scan nor the BGG item description names that icon in words, so it is transcribed here as "an icon" and not given a name. Check the base rulebooks for the reward it refers to, and for how the first place reward for a conflict is resolved.
"Gain a troop" is the card's printed effect and follows the base rules for gaining troops.
The cost of 3 is paid in persuasion, as printed on the card.
The agent ability reads "Trash this card" followed by the arrow to the troop, and the two halves of the ability are joined by "AND". Both halves apply when the agent ability is used.
