I have a question about abilities. (I am new to Malifaux, but not to table top minis.) I went down to a local store and was asking someone about the game. I had been reading quite a bit about it the game but at that point I had not tried it yet. A guy showed me a quick demo. He said something that I just didnt sound right. I wanted to find out the real answer before I corrected him so...
He was using McMourning and during his activations he would use his ability (+1) Passion for his work ability. He was stating that he could use it multiple times during each activation.
Now I am new and am not very clear on the rules, but from what I understand that would not be possible. The 2 reasons I assume someone cant do that is:
1) you may not gain the benefit of same ability more than once per activation (pg 36ish of little rule book). So I take it that the wording.. model receives Fast could only apply once per activation.
2) that the (+1) means that you could only do that ability once per activation.
I am asking so that I have a better understanding of the rules in general.
