Is there anywhere in the rules that would disallow a Royal Guard TIE/IN (with title) taking two of the same modification (thinking specifically two Shield Upgrades)?

yeah the Royal Guard Title says 2 different modifications.

yeah the Royal Guard Title says 2 different modifications.

Then again, 2 identical Rookie X-Wings are 2 different ships.

If that was the case why even bother putting in the word different, it's quite obvious that they mean two cards with different names.

English is an odd beast. It is in no way remotely obvious what they mean. They could rule either way in an FAQ.

Are you kidding me? If they didn't want them to be Different mods, they would have just put "May equip two modifications". There's only 1 reason why they would put the word different. It's not crystal clear in english i guess, but in reasoning it is.

different means different.. not the same

quit reading into it

If the card say "different" then that should mean two upgrades that can be told apart immediately. If you used two cards with the same upgrade the game has no way to tell them apart; with no way to tell the cards apart is there really any way to call them "different" when you can't say which is which the moment you look away?

The game does NOT allow for two "identical" ships. If you happened to be flying a squadron of eight Academy Pilots all may be using the same type of ship but none are "identical" as the game says each must be assigned a unique number to differentiate it from all of the other similar ships.

Yeah that is crazy person talk. You cannot put two of the same modification on. Not even two different the same ones.

Semantics are going to just lead us into harsh words and hurt feelings. Let's think Balance for a second.

Would you want Fell with push the limits and two stealth devices in the game?

Well if you were the one playing him, sure.

Honestly the only upgrade I see causing any issue doubled is the Stealth Device. I see no problem balance-wise with having two different Shield Upgrades.

If you think that is unclear, you are trying to read something into it that is not there.

I prefer to think of different as "legal" vs. "illegal". I'm totally putting HCL on my next interceptor with Stealth. Totally legit since they are different right? [insert extra sarcasm here]

I think the best "mods" would be 1 X-Wing and 1 B-Wing, that should give 9 attack, 9 Hull, 6 Agility and 7 shield, right? They are "different".

Yeah kind of obvious what the card means!

Let's be honest, it's a bloody good title anyway. A squint with a stealth device and shields? Plus push the limit if you really wanted to be ridiculous?

Think I will prefer Shield upgrade + target computer and PTL with Soontir ^^

This disappoints me. I was really looking forward to putting twin Engine Upgrades on my squint.

Honestly the only upgrade I see causing any issue doubled is the Stealth Device. I see no problem balance-wise with having two different Shield Upgrades.

Hey i will not argue if my opponent insists on taking 2 Engine upgrades on his Interceptor so he has 3 boost symbols to choose from XD

Honestly, I'm not sure how many people would object to seeing two shield upgrades on the same ship as you'd only face them one at a time. The killer is easily putting two Stealth Devices on the ship increasing its defense dice to 5 even before range and obstacles become a factor.

It's pretty obvious that it means two *different* upgrades. The argument about two Rookie Pilots being different is a big stretch, and it's this kind of twisting of meanings that is ruining games like HeroClix. Enough is enough already. We don't need a FAQ for every bloody little thing.

"You may equip up to 2 different Modification upgrades (instead of 1)."

If you think that is unclear, you are trying to read something into it that is not there.

It says modification upgrades. A shield device is a modification upgrade, a stealth device is another. Since it says different, these have to be...different
