Ten is the highest figure shown so far.

What that means when you are planning

Ten is what appears in official material and in preview footage. Whether it is a hard cap or the cap at the point of the campaign previewers reached is not stated, and the distinction matters: several abilities are priced against it.

The Soldier's Rocket Strike at a reported 10 Advantage is the whole pool for one attack. The Gunslinger's Open Fire costs 9. Sweeping Salvo costs 4 and is limited to three uses a mission. Hawks' Action Point grant costs 3. Those prices are the reason a squad's Advantage generation is a build decision rather than a detail — at a ceiling of ten, two expensive spenders in the same squad cannot both fire in the same turn.

Open questions

Points the shipped game has not yet answered for us, or that need a controlled comparison to state as fact — recorded rather than guessed at.

  • Whether 10 is a hard cap or the cap at the campaign point previewers reached.
  • Whether the ceiling can be raised through Focus Trees or facilities.

What is Advantage in Zero Company?
A squad-wide resource: each time an Operator damages an enemy the squad gains 1 Advantage, up to 10, spent on powerful abilities that cost no Action Points.
Do Advantage abilities cost Action Points as well?
No. Advantage abilities spend Advantage instead of Action Points, so using one does not end the Operator's turn.
