Hi guys,
Continuing Mission and Reshape The Quadrant both state that they are discarded if I play or have played personnel or ships without the respective icons.
What about an Assign Mission Specialist download of personnel without those icons?
I was wondering about the specific meaning of the term play.
The Glossary actually does not have an entry called 'play', neither does the Rulebook.
There is a play phase, but that phase only begins AFTER the seed phase.
Regarding downloads in the seed phase, the Glossary states ...
According to the Glossary, a card downloaded that way is of course considered 'in play', but not 'played'.
So I dare to say that I can download any mission specialists I want without having to nullify my Continuing Mission and Reshape The Quadrant - because of the way the Glossary is worded.

Then you must immediately play or report the card (or seed it, via a "download and seed" action)Using the letter of the law in this case, it means that a card that is downloaded in the seed phase is 'downloaded and seeded', NOT played.
