Summarize your bug Jyn Erso dies while Admiral Raddus (with Transmission from Scarif ability maxed) is not defeated.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? LSGEO TB, Phase 3 Free Choice Combat Mission: enter battle with Admiral Raddus (all zetas and omicron), Jyn Erso (all zetas), Cassian Andor (zeta and omicron), K-2S0 (zeta), and Baze Malbus. Opponent team was 2x B2, 2x Sniper Droid, 1x BX, 1x B1.

Additional note: it appears that the revive mechanics (Jyn and Raddus) were having difficulties functioning. While I cannot be 100% certain that one of the Sniper Droids or the BX droid landed an attack the prevented revives, I am fairly certain they did not, and definitely not on Baze *and* K-2S0 *and* Jyn.

@Celanon Any ability that is classified as a "Destroy Effect" can defeat Jyn while Raddus is still alive. That is WAI.

Destroy Effects are things like Annihilate/Disintegrate/etc.

In your case, it will have been a Sniper droid at 15 stacks of charge using it's 1st special.

@EnigmaPotatoes The effect in question, “Sniper Shot”, specifically states “… If Sniper Droid has at least 15 stacks of Charge, instantly defeat target enemy, which can't be evaded. Enemies defeated by this ability can't be revived.” Keyword: defeat. Admiral Raddus’ ability states “… While Admiral Raddus is active, Jyn Erso can't be defeated.”

The second ability directly contradicts the first one, regardless of whether it is classified as a “Destroy Effect” or not.

@Celanon Yeah, I understand the confusion. This is a case of awful wording in the ability descriptions. They really should be updated to reflect their actual function.

Basically all "Can't be defeated" effects are bypassed by destroy effects.

JKR's Savior/QGJ Omicron/Talon's Unique/Raddus/etc, all function this way too.
