    Quote from Blaze of Glory Rules Supplement:

    Battle Bridge side decks affect this dilemma as follows:
    • When battling the Borg Ship dilemma, you may use a current tactic and may place damage markers on the dilemma if appropriate.
    • The dilemma does not use either player’s Tactic cards; thus, your ships and facilities it hits suffer default damage if your opponent is using a Battle Bridge side deck (or card rotation damage if your opponent is not).
    • When the dilemma is attacking both players’ cards, it does so as two separate battles. (As always, the player whose turn it is chooses which happens first.)
    • If both players have damaged the Borg Ship dilemma but only one of them has a Battle Bridge side deck, some of the dilemma’s damage will be indicated by damage markers and some of it will be indicated by card rotation. The card rotation damage is equivalent to HULL –50% and combines with the damage markers to determine whether the Borg Ship dilemma is destroyed.
