So I just wanted to see if this was right-if I put opportunist on Nien Nunb T-70 X-wing pilot, if I have an enemy ship in my firing arc at range one, when I give him the stress token for opportunist, can I immediately remove it able to use opportunist again? If so, does this result in infinite attack dice????
Nien Nunb + Opportunist
You can discard the stress but Once Per Opportunity prevents you using Opportunist again.

Page 8 of the rulebook under Card Abilities:
Quote
- A card ability cannot be resolved more than once during the timing specified on the card. For example, a card with the timing of “when defending” cannot be resolved twice by the defender during a single attack.
If the defender has no focus or evade tokens, you'll get one extra attack die from Opportunist, then dump the stress. It's pretty much a freebie attack die for Nien.
what if I move then do a target lock action I then use experimental interface to get card action I do opportunist can I do this and if so can I remove both stress since I get one for experimental interface and one for opportunist Nien Numb does not say once per round

Yes. Nien Numb's trigger is "when you receive a stress token", meaning each opportunity a stress token is assigned is an opportunity to trigger his ability. Give him a stress bot to stress his range 1 target when he attacks, and you'll have 5 red dice at range 1, target lock, and you'll stress the defender for the low cost of zero stress.
Equip Pattern Analyser and EI, and you can in theory K turn or tellon roll, boost into range, EI Rage, and discard all 4 stress. THen use R3A2 and discard that stress too. Stress nien is hilarious.
thx guys this is a great place for people like me that cannot get out much to get rules question answered and good ideas
say that Nien plays opportunist range 3 so can not remove the stress next move does white move gets in range 1 can he then remove the stress and play opportunist again also say Nien plays rage range 3 gets 2 stress then does green move gets into range 1 does he remove both stress tokens
No. He only removes the stress he gains whilst at range 1 of a ship in his arc. Other stress must be removed normally.
Raging stressbot Nien trolls or k-turns to range one arc, dumps all his stress, stresses target and hits with rerolls. For 32 pts.
Or PTL targeting astromech Nunb for crazy action economy.
But he’s only PS 7 so I guess I can’t take him. At least that’s what I hear on the forum

You can but you're unlikely to do well. He's an arc locked ps7 ship without regen for 30+ points.

Yup that’s what I heard

It's not just that he's only PS7. It's that he arc locked, PS7, without regen, and without (useful) munition slots, and he costs x7 defender money whilst not hitting any harder or dodging any better.
He's fantastic fun though.

I have got to try me that one time at casual night.
