The Chain Veil

There are multiple ways to either untap or get a second use of The Chain Veil, but the wording on the card allows for the player to Once This Turn activate a planeswalker ability as if none has been activated. If the Veil is activated multiple times, do you get multiple extra uses of the planeswalkers?

Hello,

We don't answer questions about unreleased cards until the FAQ is out. The reason is that rules may change until then and a resulting wrong answer would be worse than no answer at all.

Thanks.

And this is covered by the Magic 2015 Release Notes:

* Each additional time The Chain Veil’s last ability resolves will allow you to activate a loyalty ability of each planeswalker you control an additional time. For example, if you activate The Chain Veil’s last ability, untap it, then activate it again, you can activate a loyalty ability of a planeswalker you control three times that turn.

If you manage to activate The Chain Veil's ability twice in one turn, you'll be able to play up to three loyalty abilities of each of your planeswalkers.
