can they stack? By stacking, i mean if i have master force 2, can i use it twice, and still move 8 or 12 squares with the power, or can i only use it once?

(example GOWK using knight speed twice to move a total of 14 squaes and attacking or 20 and not)

My understanding is that you cannot stack specific Force Abilities that make you move faster (such as Knight or Master Speed), but you can stack one of them with the general extra two movement. So, you can have GOWK spend two force points to move 12 and attack or 18 and not attack.

I had some experienced players tell me this at a local tournament. However, I cannot find the ruling for this myself, so I have no citation to the FAQ or otherwise to support it.

Somebody care to weigh in on this?

No, Knight Speed and Master Speed, like almost every other Force Power and Special Ability, do not stack with themselves.

This is the closest thing I could find in a quick skim thru the FAQ:
Q: Can Darth Bane use Master of the Force 2 to invoke Sith Rage twice for +20 damage on all attacks on that turn?
A: No. Stacking rules apply normally. Once you have Sith Rage you have it and having a second copy does not increase the damage. However, technically it can be invoked twice. It might be useful to do so if the first use is canceled with Force Absorb for example.

And from the glossary definition of "stacking":
Unless otherwise specified, no effect produced by a Force power, special ability,
commander effect, or cover stacks with itself.

Crap, I think EVERYONE has been using Bane wrong, and anyone with MotF2 and Master/Knight speed.


EDIT

Wait....

if they dont stack, can you still use force Defense more than once?(dumb question but it doesnt say it can)

HA, I answered your prayers, this is what the glossary says about it

Glossary Text:

(Force) A character with this Force power may spend Force points up to 2 times in a single turn. This character can also spend Force points more than once to take the same action (such as moving an additional 2 squares or rerolling an attack).

so I think they do stack? maybe but maybe not.

dang it, but as I said above the glossary says, this character can also spend force points more than once to take the same action.

And thats what huk said the first time. You can Master Speed and remove a second FP for a total of 8 extra squares.
