Vent Steam question

[vonevilstein]

Can Mei Feng use Vent Steam more than once in her activation?

I'm sure the book would have answered this but I'm still waiting for it to come back into print so I thought I'd post here...

She can, but it doesn't do anything the second time

Thanks for the reply. For my technical understanding, why is it that though if the card says -negative fate? I thought if a -/+ is present it stacks unless the card says otherwise? Is it auras that don't stack?

"Effects which are not Conditions always stack unless they state otherwise. For example, enemy models within :aura1 of Canine Remains suffer -1 Df. If an enemy model is within range of two Canine Remains, it will suffer -2 Df."

I was of Adran's opinion, before reading again... Fate modifiers are effects which are not Conditions, and they stack: if something says you gain to a flip, and you already had :+fate on it, you go to

:+fate , not . I think a 2nd Vent Steam Action would stack :-fate.

Thanks for this. That's the way I read it as well but of course I don't currently have the rulebook so your quote is handy. I'll go through it with my friend who has got the rulebook to make sure.

Good point. I was happy if two different models vented steam that they would stack, I just assumed that it put something on Mei, but there is nothing to say that.
