    Greetings,

    Can I please have someone clarify what is meant by "it" in the following sentence. Does "it" refer to the TAG or does "it" refer to the pilot?

    Additionally - What happens to the Pilot if its been regained control of? Is it re-deployable?

    • Pilot (Remote):
    • As an exception to this rule, if the Remote Pilot is on the gaming table in an Isolated, Immobilized (IMM-A or IMM-B) or Null State, their player may spend an Order or ARO to declare Reset with the Vehicle or TAG to regain control of it.


    • If this Reset is a Normal Roll with no MODs applied, it will be an automatic success and, after declaring this, the Remote Pilot is removed from the gaming table."
    Cheers,

    It's referring to regaining control of the otherwise 'locked' TAG (the TAG goes into standby mode when the remote pilot is unpacked. The reset roll is to reactivate the TAG, which is why if it is successful, the remote pilot model gets removed.

    The IT is the TAG. The pilot could be off the table dead, so it wouldn't make sense if the IT refers to the pilot, not to mention that no matter what after resetting the pilot is removed.

    If the pilot is off the table dead then you can't reset to regain control because the TAG would already be removed.

    Which makes it even more obvious that it refers to the TAG

    Mmm... Nope... That line is for Pilot (Remote).
    If the Pilot is dead, the TAG can still be resetted

    The Pilot (Remote) has to be on the gaming table in an Isolated, Immoblized or Null state to reset. The rules are very clear.

    Dead is a Null state too... We always assumed that the "remote controller" could regain control of the TAG even if the REM Pilot was blasted off..

    It is worth a check if intended or not!

    The rule says "if the Remote Pilot is on the gaming table" ... their player can reset. It is very hard to be on the gaming table if in dead state.
