2x repopulation

Hello!

I'm confused about the 2x card repopulation rule. When deployed, I try to double itself with a prior 2x cube, but the box will not repopulate. To be clear, I'm using a prior 2x cube that I've already earned on its own card that matches an opponent's rolled dice. I'm not using the new 2x cube just rolled.

I've tried this with other deployed cards' cubes and they always repopulate, just not the 2x card.

What's the reason for this? Can someone explain?

Thanks!

I don't get it either, the increase dice slots refill if you use them to get back to the zone they're on.

The only thing I can think of is that you are doubling rewards you’ve already taken. I know the mechanics of the game as it is implemented online are such that you take the token off before choosing which rewards to take but I think the rules of the game indicate otherwise.

Page 27 of this rulebook explicitly states, "Note, this ability cannot be used to charge itself."

See also the FAQ: https://www.alderac.com/wp-content/uplo ... 018_v2.pdf

"Q: If I have the 2X charged, an 8 is rolled, and choose to spend the charge to double the rewards, does the 2X card become re-charged immediately?

A: No. For the 2X to become charged it must be uncharged before the roll."
