Open Wound trigger, more than 1 Ram?

[Rannith]

The wording of the Open Wound trigger on the Mechanized Infantry says “Immediately increase the Strength of this action by +1 per RAM in the final duel total.

is it possible to get more than one RAM?

[MuMantai]

It absolutely is, due to the Versatile Tactics ability on the Walker.

[Rannith]

Thanks MuMentai, I had forgotten the walker. Also, didn’t realise that ability affected all fireteams in the unit.

Also Aby has a strategem that gives a moral action to get a suit and gives a free moral action to every fireteam that turn.

Just to keep the threads linked together:

I still think they messed up the wording/mechanics of the Open Wound trigger trying to copy M2E's Accuracy trigger effect.  At best it's a race condition (Do you remove the ram from the final duel total when you declare the trigger or after you resolve the "Immediately" effect of the trigger?) and at worst you you're left with the doubt "Do I need one or two Rams to get +1 Strength?" since I think everyone with that trigger has ways to get a second ram.

But probably it's supposed to work as:

If you have one Ram when you declare the trigger, you get +1 Strength.

If you have two Rams when you declare the trigger, you get +2 Strength.

Thank you all.  I only got my TOS stuff on Sunday so I’m not fully on top of all the cards and permutations.

Its also worth mentioning the trigger exists on other models so wording will be kept consistent across them even if one of them can't gain extra rams.

I Agree with Solkans view that its accidently worded like a malifaux trigger rather than a TOS trigger, and that I think the intent is 1 ram is +1 strength and 2 is +2 strength.

But as worded, it isn't 1 for 1.
