Sorry guys, I'm trying to learn the game, but keep encountering things that I don't clearly understand. Thank you for the patience.

Units can be given weapon upgrade cards which are separate from the heavy weapon upgrade cards, eg fragmentation grenades vs the Ion trooper for the Rebels. Now the rules are clear that the Ion trooper is the only one with the gun, and if that figure is removed so is the weapon. However the grenades are confusing me. You don't lose them until the unit is wiped, understood, but how many people can use them in a turn?

If I have 4 guys left, can I throw 4 grenades? Also special rules. Complicating the an example further, the Madalorian Rockets they have Impact 1. So if I have a unit of 4, and assuming they all get to use the rockets, does that mean I get the equivalent of Impact 4? (4 * 1)

Any help gratefully received

Found the answer, it was on page 14.

They all get to use it and it does apparently become impact 4.....

Correct!

It's worth noting that while they all CAN use the Grenades, they aren't obliged to.

If for example you have a unit of Death Troopers with their DLT-19D Heavy Weapon upgrade, E11-D Weapon upgrade and Frag Grenades.

You can use ONE Frag Grenade to give your dice pool "Surge to Crit", then add the DLT-19D, one trooper using the E11-D in Grenade Launcher Config and the two remaining troopers using their SE-14 Light Blasters.

This would give you a total attack pool of....

4 Red Dice, 5 White Dice
With: Blast, Surge to Crit, Impact 1
