On a 6, if the card can't be played (e.g., it is a prevention effect with nothing to prevent) or if you cannot pay the costs associated with playing the card, it stays in your hand; you must pay the costs if you can. You still have to reveal it to the Corp. |

Must this actions be taken at the beginning of your turn right after you roll the die, or do you roll and take the action later that turn? There's nothing on the card that says specifically that you have to take the action as your first action right after rolling the die.

So for ally's problem of double prep, i'm not sure it works ...
