Rule notes

Official Runlings:

Revised text:
Seed one during facility phase on any spaceline end OR play on any spaceline location where you have a Borg Navigation Borg. Any player may play a Transwarp Conduit (or another copy of this doorway) to allow moving any or all of that player's ships ...

To move ships through Transwarp Network Gateways, there must already be in play two copies of this doorway at different locations. You must play another Transwarp Network Gateway doorway or a Transwarp Conduit interrupt each time you wish to move a ship (or group of ships) through the gateway network. This does not use any of the ship's RANGE, but is still normal ship movement, requiring full staffing. Playing a Transwarp Network Gateway requires a Borg Navigation Borg present even when download (e.g., with the Borg Outpost's special download icon). See spaceline.
