Question

Underground Distribution 1A says to search the encounter deck for Defense Network and “reveal it.” Defense Network says “when revealed, place an addition 1 per-person threat here.” Would Underground Distribution 1A reveal the card, then would Defense Network also reveal itself? In other words, would the card be “revealed twice?” Or is 2A merely qualifying the reveal by stating it’s not “put into play?”

Answer

It’s not revealed twice. The instruction to ‘reveal it’ means that you should resolve staging the card as if it was revealed from the encounter deck, that includes resolving its ‘when revealed’ effect and putting it into play.
