I understand that he can make a change to dice once per round. But how many dice is he alowed to change during the use of his ability once per round?

1. It says die, singular, not dice.

One single die result, once per turn.

I am not sure I agree with this. If you read the article again it seems that you can alter all dice in a die result.

He can alter the result of any of your dice results, anywhere on the table.

With his ability, Emperor Palpatine can help Soontir Fel and Carnor Jax cripple their opponents, changing their attack dice to make them impossibly precise anytime they've managed to doge your opponent's firing arcs, or he can boost their defense by ensuring they roll evade results when they need them.

I have to admit one second I agree with you, the next I don't.

Granted English is not my first language, but could 'die result' refer to the result of the entire roll? I am not sure.

No "die result" is for just one die. Where the text refers to Soontir and Carnor and changing their attack "dice", that plural is referring to both pilots, not more than one result.

A good reason it's one die result and not multiple dice results: it would be literally impossible to hit anything with 3 agility with less than 4 hits if they were guaranteed 3 Evades (granted it's difficult enough with the Emperor changing just one!).

In defense of all die, his ability is only used once so a Fel would be able to most likely survive one onslaught from a single B-wing with HLC but not the next set of shots, even a double tap from Corran. Hence the price of 8 and 2 crew spots. That is why think, and we can blame our befuddled American English, "die" can be used a a plural. As it is with craps, "a roll of the die" (which includes 2 dice)

I've seen "dice" used in the singular but have never seen "die" used as a plural.

From the card text (the only text that matters), the answer is very singular, and clear: You may change a friendly ship's die result to any other die result.

If the author of this card intended for multiple die results, the words die and result would both be in the plural. That they are both in the singular, and that both are repeated more than once in this way, gives very strong evidence to support the interpretation that the "card means exactly what it says" - and not the alternative interpretation which says, "The card says one thing, but means something more".

I am back on the one die (dark) side. It is only the article that causes the confusion. Card text alone is only using singular.

"Dark side" - with the Emperor. I see what you did there.

"die" can be used a a plural.

Not correctly, it can't.

One thing people seem to not see is that is a die result. If it were plural, it would say results.

I'm not sure if this helps or not but even when Palpatine just changes one DIE he does change the overall result of the Dice. For example if you roll an Evade, Focus, Blank as the result of your defensive dice the Palpatine turns the Blank into an Evade that HAS changed the "result" as E,F,B =/= E,F,E.

Guys, it's obviously one die. Especially since when playing against the devs using it, they were using it for just one.

Or if you can read.

A possible point of confusion:

"Change a friendly ship's die result to any other die result"

"Die result" can be singular while still referring to the result of multiple dice- the limiting factor is that it's THAT SHIP's "Die Result", not something like "Change one fiendly ship's die to any other result."
