If a player scores a hold point from a battlefield, then moves their last unit out (making it uncontrolled), then moves another unit into that same battlefield during the same turn, does a showdown occur and can they score again?
Ruling: The battlefield becomes uncontrolled when the last unit leaves. When a unit enters that battlefield, a showdown occurs because the player is attempting to gain control of a battlefield they don't control. However, the player does not score or conquer again because they already scored from that battlefield this turn.
Sequence:
- Player scores hold point from battlefield
- Player moves last unit out, battlefield becomes uncontrolled
- Player moves another unit into the battlefield
- Showdown occurs (non-combat)
- If player gains control, no additional scoring occurs
Nuances:
- The showdown is non-combat
- The restriction on scoring/conquering applies because the battlefield was already scored this turn
