Collodi: Holding the Strings vs. Doll Friends

[Slade]

So, I'm gunna be starting the master of Puppets soon (June), and I've got a quick question:

Doll Friends makes one Doll activate after Collodi activates.
Holding the strings may immediately activate Marionettes after Collodi.

In timing Must comes before May, but Immediate comes first, so would you have to activate the Marionettes before the other doll, since you immediately activate them, activate the other doll because it must activate, or activate them in any order? I think the last one is the RAI, but I could be wrong.

[Katcher]

...can you activate both 1 doll and Marionettes to 6 "?

edit : IMHO Marriottes goes first, because of "immediatly". You activate Doll and Marionnettes after Collodi, but Marionnetes immediatly?

[Wodschow]

I believe you would take all the Marionettes first.

Some sort of reference would be the last paragraph on page 31, but I agree the general rules on timing result in something strange when applied here..

Yeah, a bit wonky. It makes sense though, the Marionettes are attached to Collodi, so they should go right after him.

And yes, you can do both. Holding the Strings is a talent, and Doll friend is a (0) ability.
