So... been working with a build, and wondered how the abilities Smuggler's Luck and Recon would interact?
Assuming I'm capable of activating both abilities during the initiative rolls, what would my modified number of initiatives be? Both abilities say to roll twice...
Would it just be two rolls (with the two abilities cancelling each other out because of the wording)?
Would it be three rolls (each of the abilities triggering a 'second' roll after my first)?
Thanks-in-advance for any help on this.

Two rolls. They do the same thing, allowing 2 rolls for initiative.

So if I have two adjacents Monnoks, I can roll only twice for iniciative, because SA does not stack?

I'm i Right in saying that the most you can get is 4 rolls for initiative?

1. Original roll.
2. Recon or Smugglers Luck
3. Anticipation reroll of 1.
4. Anticipation reroll of 2.

no ties which will happen more than you think when your rolling 4 times. Odds are your going to tie once or twice in a game if your rolling four times.

yeah but a tie only hapens if you let it, because from the way i have always been told and seen it, it is the final pick of your initiative that matters and triggers effects such as rerolling and reserves.

if your rolling four times odds are you will be playing a reserve squad so you will want to take the tie everytime unless you get your number. You still roll twice on tie.

Could you not roll even more times if you had multiple characters with Anticipation (Zuckster, Voolviff, Poncho-Gon)

No, this is covered in the glossary definition of Anticipation.
