4 solkan Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 From the Stacking callout: Quote All other effects in the game which are not Conditions always stack unless they state otherwise. For example, enemy models within a1 of Canine Remains suffer -1 Df. If an enemy model is within range of two Canine Remains, it will suffer -2 Df. Another example, the Rush of Magic Ability allows the Crew to draw one additional card in the Draw Phase and then discard a card. If a Crew contains two models with the Rush of Magic ability, that Crew would draw two additional cards in the Draw Phase and then discard two cards. Every instance of that trigger is going to apply an additional -1 Ca modifier, and they're going to stack because they're not on the stacking exceptions list.

0 Dogmantra Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 There's no limit to the amount of times you can declare the trigger provided you're getting the suits. But as to whether it accumultes the penalty to his Ca stat... I'm not entirely sure. I'm leaning towards if you trigger it off a trigger you're still only taking the -1 to the action's Ca stat, so casting at Ca 6 for every attack generated by a trigger, rather than Ca 6 then 5 then 4 etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah in which case I would probably go with this - I am not super familiar with the FAQ outside the general and Gremlin entries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Von Woozle Posted August 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 If I get the lightning storm trigger, but the only target that got damaged by the pulse is out of range, do I lose the trigger? I've been playing as I don't get the trigger. I ask because I know shooting into combat can extend your range. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bengt Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 All the normal rules apply to an action unless explicitly waived. Since it doesn't say that you can ignore range or LoS you would need both to perform the action granted by the trigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
