Their special rule says they get a plus 1 to fight if near fara or boro. If near both is it a plus 2?

oooooooooo....., it is cumulative. So with Banner of MT, that makes it +3????

but that word "either" is going to probably be a bucket of cold water.

So far as I know, no bonuses or penalties are cumulative in the game, so long as they come from the same rule (unless otherwise stated). So no, they would only get the +1 Fight bonus, even if in range of both. They would, however, get +2 Fight bonus if in range of Boromir, as well as the Banner of Minas Tirith, as the rules do not explicitly state that they cannot (unlike Ancient Evil stating it does not stack with Goblin Drums or Harbinger of Evil, or vice versa).

They only get +1 even if they're within range of both

Unless Boromir is also carrying the banner, then it would be +2 (and awesome!). Just worth clarifying. One for the Veterans' rule and one for the banner.

You 100% sure it stacks?

Yes, when you have boromir with banner, all vets within 3" of him are FV5.

Why is this? I'm not looking to challenge but looking to understand why the rule comes across that way.

Banner of MT: w/in 3" +1F
Note: bonus is cumulative with other fight value bonuses.

Osgiliath Vet: w/in 6" of Boromir or Faramir +1F (or both)
Note: bonus is cumulative with other fight value bonuses.

The wording "or both" is where the distinction lies.

Because they would be the cheapest F6 troops in the game otherwise.

I think it's more reliable to have guards of the fountain court with shield nearby, because they basically become better than elves then lol F5 D7 and body guard
