Hi all, the Zeta leader ability is : "When attacking, if you are not stressed, you may receive 1 stress token to roll 1 additional die." , if i have another ship like Yorr with Lambda (When another friendly ship at Range 1-2 would receive a stress token, if you have 2 or fewer stress tokens, you may receive that token instead), that take zeta leader's stress token instead, can i trigger the zeta leader's ability more than one time for any attack??

No - this falls under the "once per opportunity" category. You'll only be able to add one additional die per attack, but if somehow there's a way to attack multiple times it should work on every attack (for example if he's got an EPT, you can run snap shot and take a stress for the snap shot and then another for his regular combat phase attack).

Additionally, because someone at FFG is mentally challenged, Zeta wouldn't even get the extra die in the first place if Yorr takes the stress. For some reason, Yorr had to be nerfed with abilities that say "You may take a stress to [do whatever]" and since Zeta (Lorrir, etc) then never actually takes the stress, she can't do [whatever].

Clarifying on what ObiWonka said - there is a paragraph in the FAQ that addresses Yorr intercepting stress:

"If, through his pilot ability, Captain Yorr intercepts a stress token that is part of the cost of triggering an ability on another ship (such as Soontir Fel or Opportunist), that ability’s effect does not resolve."

So Zeta Leader has to receive the stress to roll the additional die.

Soontir was likely one of the original reasons that Yorr originally had to be clarified this way.

Imagine back in the day if Soontir could turtle up with no stress and then be free to run any maneuver on his dial. that would have been crazy.

It's a fair point, but the others affected by the ruling are nowhere near good enough with Yorr's help, let alone without it, and they just as easily could've been worded to work with him (i.e. Lt. Lorrir: "When performing a barrel roll action, you may use the bank template. If you do, receive 1 stress token") hence it's a crappy ruling.

Not only does it screw over Lorrir and Zeta Leader, but that phrasing also appears in the gunboat pilot Lt. Karsabi so you can't combine him with Advanced SLAM and Yorr. I guess we should be thankful that Countdown wasn't affected.

Lorrir - take away the stress requirement, add an EPT and THEN maybe he's the pilot he should be.
