Stockpile ability of Ko-Tun Feralo & R5 Astromech

By Yuna1979, in Imperial Assault Rules Questions

Hallo everybody,

I have a question: does the Stockpile ability of Ko-Tun Feralo work when R5 uses Forage ? More precisely, if R5 is within 3 spaces of Feralo, can it look at the top 5 cards and choose 1?

Thanks for your help.

The Forage ability on R5 is not an interact, it's its own special action that just requires you to be next to a crate, so I'd say Stockpile does not interact with it and you just do what it says on R5's companion card.

This was already resolved privately, it took a while to get through the mods, following my reply:

R5 Astromech is not interacting with a crate, it is just drawing a supply card. (The same applies to the special action in Mak's Supply Network.)

Also see the app-friendly new wording of Stockpile from the FAQ:

"When a friendly figure within 3
spaces interacts with a crate, instead of
drawing the first Supply card, it may
look at the top 5 cards and draw 1 non-
valuable card. Then, shuffle the deck."
