Star Realms
Does a base already in play trigger a newly played ship's ally ability?
The rulebook text settles this.

Yes. A base from an earlier turn counts as long as it is in play, so a ship of that faction can use its ally ability the turn it is played, and the base's own ally ability is available every turn while another card of its faction is in play. Two same-faction bases trigger each other without any ship.
