Hi all.

I don’t get how to properly use the Numerous feature.

Is there any mechanical difference between, for instance, a bodyguard-ally asset with Numerous 1 and one with Numerous 2?
With Numerous 1 I’ll get two guards, on the other hand I’ll get four. Does this grant them extra stress boxes as per groups of mooks?
And in that case, what if I also take extra Sturdy or Resilient features?

Thanks!

No. Numerous doesn't grant you any additional mechanical effects. The reasons you would take Numerous are:

1) Because you want more than one of something (simple, but sometimes that important to people).

2) Because you need to fill the complement of a ship or other Asset with a requirement of individuals to make it work.

3) Because you don't want to be easily disarmed (a Create Advantage action to disarm you in combat would normally remove an Asset from you, but if you have two of them most GMs would rule that you only lose one unless the opponent succeeded with style, or incapacitated you first).
