A player may have ships in the system containing a legendary planet or Mecatol Rex without controlling the planet for that system to count towards the requirements of Become a Legend.
If Mirage is placed in an anomaly, or the Nano–Forge relic is attached to a planet in an anomaly, that system will only count as one system towards the requirements of Become a Legend.
Any system containing a Vuil’raith player’s Dimensional Tear is a gravity rift, and thus, an anomaly.
If a Vuil’raith player’s Dimensional Tear is in a system containing another anomaly, a legendary planet, or Mecatol Rex, that system will only count as one system towards the requirements of Become a Legend.

Any effect that destroys fighters during the Anti–Fighter Barrage step may be used to score Fight with Precision Ω, not just hits produced by an anti–fighter barrage roll.
For example, say a player plays the Courageous to the End action card when one of their fighters are destroyed during the Anti–Fighter Barrage step. If the dice roll causes their opponent to destroy their ships, and they choose their last fighter, that would allow the player to score Fight with Precision Ω.
