double zillo

By naitsirk, in Imperial Assault Skirmish

HI guys!

What happen if we play a 4team skirmish. In one team there is two imperials. Both with zillo.

Can we use both zillo to reduce 4 pierce and discard 2 cards for a +2 in the same attack?

Yes.

They are separate sources for the abilities. Either or both abilities can be used in the same attack from one or both sources in any combination.

Is legal this combination in the same team?... Zillo is unique

That's up to the players. Rules as written all squads are separate even in team 4 players, and thus can share uniques. It would be pretty flavorful to state that unique figures carry on each team, but it would definitely be a house rule.

The restriction is one of each unique per army. Teams may not have a pre-decided pairings, so restriction of one of each unique per team would cause issues.

cards like Zillo are more about overall game balance across factions then they are about making interesting list choices.

There was a team tournament around here, house rules where, that ALL restrictions applied to the whole team. So no 2 Take Initiatives, no 4 eWeequay units ...

Sounds like a good rule.

We do this as it makes the games a bit more thematic. I really don't think you should be fielding 2 zillos in a 4 player skirmish. The card is already so powerful for 1 pt!

I also think that 4 player skirmish is still in its infancy and issues like this are bound to come up (not unlike the R2-D2 issue you brought up on the Hoth map) that will need to be clarified or FAQ'd.
