BATARANG: Batman may start the game with the [BtAS] #s001 Batarang equipped. // Batman may activate an equipped [BtAS] #s001 Batarang as FREE instead of RANGE and doesn't roll to KO it.
The instead isn't the deciding factor. It's the "may"
He may use it as a FREE. It doesn't take away his ability to use it as RANGE.
I don't think in either case he'd roll to KO it.
Damn, I misplayed him yesterday. I thought he could only activate it as a free action; I could've ended my game a lot quicker knowing he could use it as a free action and a RANGE action.

... That’s not how language works. If WK intended Batman to be able use it twice, the “instead” clause is unnecessary. The instead clause implies he can only do it as FREE.
Edit: never mind, the “May” at the beginning saves it. Why can’t they write their powers better?
