If I was the TD I’d say you are targeting the Away Team of X people and once targeted you cannot add or subtract from X.

After all it would be pretty stupid if you could target one person, move your ship there, beam down 4 people and say “okay now I’m rescuing these five people”.

The thing is, based on the current definition of away team, I'm pretty sure you could do exactly that.... :roll:

Couldn’t you have done that anyway with the cross-quadrant version?

Yeah. You need at least one person "stranded" so you have an away team to target, but once you're there, you can beam down more for extra card draws.

VV just makes it a stupid easy point and draw engine. I may have to find a way to abuse it... :shifty:

there is nothing limiting how many of these you play so i would say you can keep playing as many as you want, but as you noted you have to complete Rescue Personnel before you play the next one because you can't have 2 Rescue Personnel on the same ship at the same time.
