Ophelia and Totems question

[Griff the Gun]

So if I'm running a crew with Som'er and Ophelia as a henchman, am I limited to using just one Young LaCroix, or can I still use 3? The "Role Model" ability states that she can connect up to 3 when she is leading a crew... if she's the henchman, how would that work?

Thanks much.

In a crew with Somér and Ophelia, you would be able to connect a total of 7 totem models as follows:

Somér can connect up to 4 giant mosquitos at a time. Ophelia can connect up to 3 young lacroix at a time.

Masters and Henchmen both can always connect totems. Henchmen can do this regardless of whether they are acting as henchmen or if they are leading their own crew.

I agree that she'd be able to connect a totem, its just that the special rule for the Young LaCroix specifically says "when leading a Crew." That's where my question comes in.

The giant mosquitos' rule simply states that if the crew includes Som'er (not that he could be in a crew and be something other than the leader).

From the way the Role Model ability on the Young Lacroix is written she may only hire 1 Young Lacroix when she is a Henchman and this is probably intentional.

If this doesn't seem right to you then you should search the Rising Powers Rules Questions sub-forum and if you don't find anything post a question about it there. This is a question about the rules after all.
