    Hallo,

    in the Rules for Holoprojector on P.122 the first Point under Activation it is written:

    ....when deployed, placing up to three Holoechos....

    Does "up to" mean that I can place only 2 Holoechos while the deploment? The idea is to combine it with HoloMask. If you can place only 2 of the same Model on the table it will be not so obvious for the opponent while you deploy.

    Whether it is intended or not is impossible to say, but the rules do allow you to place only two copies if you prefer it.

    I'm pretty sure it is intended as N3 was more restrictive and only allowed 3
    "» Automatic when deployed, placing three Holoechoes on the game table, within Coherency of each other. Players must respect the general conditions of the Deployment rules."

    I'd missed that. That's nice for shell games.

    It’s particularly good for Yu Jing because of the Lu Duan’s silhouette size and the limited number of options for things it can holo as.

    That is SUPER interesting, disguising the LuDuan as 2 Chaiyi and then ARO'ing a MK12...

    You can’t! The typical remotes are S3 and the Lu Duan is S4, so the only things it can pretend to be are the Rui Shi, baggage bots, and motorcycles for armies that have them. The addition of motorized ABH will expand that a bit by letting Yu Jing do it. Currently the only factions that can mask a Lu Duan as a motorcyclist are all NA2: Ikari, JSA, and Dahshat.
