Once a player has committed to one of these four actions they become ineligible for the other three. So if a player is participating in a mission they are not eligible for guard actions, Galactus actions, or using a Special Attack/Ability.

Many characters will have powers that can be used during the Night Cycle. This includes the "minority" force, who have the option to execute a night kill during this phase. Note that the night kills take energy, just like any other activity.

The instructions provided to us do seem to indicate this but are not completely clear. If the traitors ability to kill does count as a Special Ability then this seems to be the case. However if this is the case what is to prevent everyone commiting to the Galactus Mission, thus staving off the ability of the traitors to target our numbers at night. Admittedly this also means that none of our numbers would be able to expend themselves searching for traitors but that seems a price worth paying if they are not able to attack us at night. I presume that this cannot be the case
