Confused about Defensive Stance

[Velcro]

The rule reads "(#) Defensive Stance: The model may discard a card. If the model does so, it gains the following Condition until the start of its next Activation a number of times equal to the AP spent on this Action: “Defensive +1: This model gains + to all Df duels.

For instance, a model that spends 2 AP on a Defensive Stance Action may discard a card to gain the Defensive +1 Condition twice (stacking to Defensive +2)".

Ok, so the example is a bit confusing. If a model spends 2 AP on DS, I understand that they get +1DF and + to all DF duels. However, what isn't clear is whether or not the +1DF and + stack for BOTH resolutions.

For example, a Belle uses 2 AP for Defensive Stance. She's gets charged, which means she'll be attacked twice for this example. Now, because she has sacrificed 2 AP, does that mean:

1) She has +2DF and 2+ against BOTH attacks

OR

2) She can choose stack it against a single attack or have 2 separate uses of +1DF and +?

So confusing...

Defensive +1: This model gains + to all Df duels.

I 'm not sure if you are saying that the Belle can get Df 6 with the "Defensive +2 " condition. The Belle stays With Df 4 but now has ++ to the Df, (double positive to the Df), to all duels.

You keep Belles "Defensive +2" condition till her next activation, the condition is not consumed like "Focus".

Defensive stance allows you to stack the 'Defensive+x' condition. The condition itself gives you an extra flip when protecting with def (basically vs physical attacks). So if you (2) Defensive Stance then you get Defensive+2 and ++ to all Df flips (when resisting with Defense). You DO NOT gain extra +1/+2 or whatever to your Df value, you only have a better modifier. The action is worded this way so you wouldn't have to discard more than once if you want to stack Defensive for the extra flips and/or have nothing better to do with the model.

Defensive +2 gives  flips against all attacks targeting DF during the condition duration (usually until next activation). Not that defensive does not increase your DF stat, it just gives you number of flips equal to the value of stacked condition.

Omg that is so much more clear! Honestly, I think the players should write the rules because you make things so much more clear lol

Thank you for the replies and the clarification
