nitrobenz Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 So I have two similar scenarios in mind of events that cause gaining two tokens and wanted to ask how it should resolve when interacting with abilities triggered by gaining a single token. The first is with Sloan or Panicked Pilot giving a ship like Nien Numb T70 two stress. His ability triggers on "gain a stress token" so does that trigger Nien's ability to clear a stress token once, twice, or not at all? Similarly in a combo with 4-LOM crew and Static discharge Vanes. 4-LOM gives you "2 stress" to do his ability but Static Discharge triggers "before you would gain 1 ion or jam token" so, again does that get to trigger once, twice, or not at all?

Kris M Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 From the Rules Reference Guide: Q: When a ship is instructed to gain two or more tokens from a single effect (such as Admiral Sloane), does this resolve as a single instance of gaining two or more tokens or as two or more separate instances of gaining one token? A: It resolves as a single instance of gaining two or more tokens. Thus, if a ship is instructed to gain two or more tokens from a single effect like Admiral Sloane, this only triggers abilities that occur “after you gain a token” once.

Dee Y Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 The abilities of upgrades like Static Discharge Vanes or Nien Numb (T-70 X-Wing) do trigger upon receiving multiple tokens. However, each of these instances counts as a discrete opportunity and may only resolve once. For example, if Nien Numb gains 2 stress from Panicked Pilot and he meets the requirement of his pilot ability, he may remove one of those stress tokens.
