Advanced Positions reads, "During the deploy units step, each trooper unit gains
Scout 1
"
Knowing that Scout Troopers/Commandos already have
Scout
`1 or 2, does that mean a Commando unit on Advanced positions would improve the value of its
Scout X
keyword to 3?
Advanced positions and Scout Troopers/Commandos
Yup. All keywords with an X value are cumulative. Scout, in particular, is capped at 3 though per the RRG entry (makes sense since we don’t have a 4 speed tool).
