8th Ed. Bastiladons

[Bendermanuk]

Hi,

I wonder what peoples thoughts are on this? I think that it is not explicit but does the +1 initiative buff stack with more Bastiladons, so if there were three within 6" of a unit of saurus, for example, would the initiative increase by 3?

Cheers,

Ben

sadly it seems that they do not.

Key language in the rule is that being in range of "one or more" give the +1

As DT has indicated, the language is quite specific in that the initiative boost does not stack. However, it does boost everything in the army within range so it results in I5 skinks/sallies/razors and I4 rippers if you can get within 6". I have been using a two pronged approach to improve the beastieboy boost with Hand of Glory and the shadow miasma. Generally, an opponent is willing/forced to let at least one of these go through and that is almost always enough to be striking first or at the same time with TG that are starting at I3.
