Free Attack Action Outside of Activation

[Noname]

Greetings,

the post from User By Sota made me confussed. I thought that multiple attack actions were possible, as long as they were made outside of the activation.

As such, i thought triggering 2-times Steady with a free move action from Yoda would indeed give two free attack actions. (since its Yoda`s activation and not the one from Bad Batch)

That would also mean that the command card (from Luke) "You serve your Master well" could steal the only attack action the enemy unit has.

Thank you for your help!

As stated in the Actions entry, "A unit may only perform each action once per activation, except for the move action. This is not restricted to "their" activation. A unit may not perform two attack actions on their activation nor may they perform two attack actions during Yoda's activation.

That is not correct. A unit may only perform each action once per activation.

That is not correct. There are a number of unique circumstances that may allow a unit to perform multiple attacks over the course of a round and this is one such circumstance. A unit may only ever perform one attack action per activation (which is roughly equivalent with a player's turn) unless it has a specifically stated exception.

Hope this helps,
Seth
