GC

This special allows a specified number of hits from the permanent record of the character or character's teammates to be removed for every card in a specified mission pile. For example, if 2 cards are in a specified pile, a total of two hits could be removed from permanent records, not 2 hits from each character. If a 'permanent record' special is drawn in a particular hand when the character has nothing on their permanent record, this special must be placed, if possible, or discarded as an unusuable card.

Meta #31 When a Special refers to a teammate, it means another Character on your team (unless the text of the Special indicates otherwise) that is not the Character who played the Special. If the Special is referring to all of the Character's teammates, then it does include the Reserve Character. If it is referring to what can be done with a specific teammate, then it applies only to the Front Line Characters. It never means the Battlesite or the Home Base.

Meta #32 If conditions are such that the card cannot be played this battle unless the opponent performs some action, then the card must be placed or discarded as unusable. If the player holds cards that can create the situation by which the card would be playable, then it can be kept in hand.
