the target is a hostile or an Invading Entity

Condition · TargetIsHostileOrInvadingEntity

Abilities carrying this token only apply when the target is a hostile or an Invading Entity. It is static: the matchup (ship, crew, opponent and battle type) settles it before the first round. If it is not met then, abilities gated on it never apply in that fight.
