So i'm not too sure on the rules of whether or not you can have multiple comrades assisting a player with various tests depending what it is. personally I have allowed it since it makes sense story wise that comrades wouldn't just be standing there while a player is struggling to climb a wall or man a heavy weapon. Does anyone know what the rules on this are and if it is a good Idea to allow this if it is not already a rule?
Multiple comrades assisting?
There are some rules for this in Hammer of the Emperor, mostly special orders that Commanders can give to multiple comrades, but they can be adapted pretty easily. In general, I allowed a lot of flexibility with regard to comrades.
Mhm, iirc, it HAS to be possible, otherwise some of the rules in HotE don't make sense at all (the Commander adv. specialty can get multiple comrades).
Sorry I meant to be clearer, If a player is aided by a comrade that isn't their comrade. I generally allow this because from a story point it makes sense but Im not sure if the rules allow this normally or if it is something that I houseruled.
