Hi there. Haven't seen this anywhere on the forums. There were mixed interpretations of this in our group so...
Fearful Volley: Battle: Fear 2 (Bow a target enemy Follower, or Personality without Followers, with 2 or lower Force). Battle: Bow your target unbowed Scout. Ranged 3 Attack (Destroy a target enemy Follower, or Personality without Followers, with 3 or lower Force).
Question: Can you combine Fearful Volley's Ranged 3 Attack with printed Ranged Attacks from other cards in the same unit as the Scout card bowing for the action?
Thanks!

All abilities producing or increasing the Ranged Attack must come from the same unit, only exception is playing Gidayu Sensei. If you play Fearful Volley, the Ranged Attack comes from the Strategy as it's one of the exceptions for determining sources: effects of Ranged Attacks and Melee Attacks come from the ability that says "Ranged / Melee Attack". As it's not a card in a unit, you can't fulfil the clause "another card in the same unit" because there's no unit in the first place.
So, no.
