I think I know the answer to this, but the cumulative rules always fill me with anxiety whenever I have to approach them
I have 5 ❖ Sybo's sitting on a colony. Do I score 5 points?
For cards like Assign Mission Specialists and Preserver Obelisk, if I have multiple copies of a given AMS or Native (i.e., 4 ❖ Batrells at a Wormhole Negotiation or a fistfull of ❖ Tepo's at Reallocate Dividends), do I score 5 points for each that helps solve? The Glossary was a hairbreadth away from explaining this- the example given under Assign Mission Specialists had an away team with two ❖ Batrells, but it never explicitly stated whether or not you could use both to score 5 points each.
Both of these seem to be cases of "one card [AMS, Colony, Preserver Obelisk] targeting multiple copies of the same card [the universal]," which seems to have the blessing of the cumulative rules. But I feel like my interpretation of the cumulative rules is almost never correct. And something seems to be nagging at me that we don't like duplicating AMS's in practice for some reason... Maybe it's instead AMS is causing the multiple universals to target a single mission, and therefore only one counts?
As I said, cumulative rules, anxiety. I feel like this is an answer I should know at this point, but I'm having a hard time getting to the correct answer from the Glossary.
Thanks!
