The Spider-Man miniature from the Rival Panels: Spider-Man vs. Doctor Octopus represents Spider-Man (Peter Parker) This would not be supported in official tournaments, no. You can leave off the symbiote. Swapping pieces between multiple official models does not inherently invalidate the model, no. You should attempt to retain the particular feel behind each model, but are otherwise free to make conversions. These are the rules for miniatures in official events MINIATURES Each player must have the miniature for each character on their Roster. Players are allowed to customize their miniatures as they like but must follow these guidelines: 1. The miniature must be made from a majority of Atomic Mass Games miniature parts from the Marvel: Crisis Protocol miniatures line. 2. The miniature must be easily identifiable as the character it represents. 3. Players may not customize a miniature in such a way that any part of the miniature represents the intellectual property of any party except Marvel, including copyrighted logos, symbols, iconic elements, or other iconography. 4. The size or pose of a customized miniature cannot interfere with gameplay. 5. Miniatures must always be attached to an Atomic Mass Games base or a modeled base that is the appropriate size and shape of the original miniature.

Tactical Network on Support units?
Thoras replied to Arfz's topic in Star Wars: Shatterpoint Rules Questions
This rule would only benefit a single character from a multiple character unit -
He may not advance if the option to advance comes from a special rule like "Hit and Run" He may advance if he has chosen to perform a move action as one of the actions a model can perform during its activation.

Trickster effect on power spent to attack?
Thoras replied to ChuckG's topic in Marvel: Crisis Protocol Rules Questions
If the attack is not a beam or area attack, the power isn’t spent until step 3, as you mentioned. Since the attack is ended before you get to this step, you don’t end up spending the power. If the attack is a beam or area attack, the timing steps follow a slightly different order. In that case, the power is spent before any targeting occurs and thus the power is spent in those cases. -
Non-official dice are not allowed per the The Challenger document (https://www.atomicmassgames.com/mcp-op/)

Yes Correct

Model conversion rules are found in the organized play documents. The current version of those rules is as follows. Miniatures Each player must have the miniature for each character in their strike team. Players are allowed to customize their miniatures as they like but must follow these guidelines: 1. The miniature must be made from a majority of Atomic Mass Games miniature parts from the Shatterpoint miniatures line. 2. The miniature must be easily identifiable as the character it represents. 3. Players may not customize a miniature in such a way that any part of the miniature represents the intellectual property of any party except Lucasfilm, including copyrighted logos, symbols, iconic elements, or other iconography. 4. The size or pose of a customized miniature cannot interfere with game play. 5. Miniatures must always be attached to an Atomic Mass Games base or a modeled base that is the appropriate size and shape of the original miniature. Point 4 is most likely to be the point you are looking for. Whether any particular conversion falls afoul of point number 4 is up to the event organizers hosting the event.

Trickster effect on power spent to attack?
Thoras replied to ChuckG's topic in Marvel: Crisis Protocol Rules Questions
Several variations of how this works out are found across these threads. In most cases, you are correct, but there are nuances https://forums.atomicmassgames.com/tags/trickster/ -
Player effects are, in general, things caused by a players Units. Two of the most common examples would be an attack made by a character or an ability from a Unit. Non-player effects are things that occur from game rules that are controlled by neither player. A common example of this would be a condition on a Unit, such as Strained causing damage to a Unit. The definition of effects is largely present on Page 15 of the current rulebook available online (Dated 7/7/23)

Modify dice step interactions.
Thoras replied to jffb213's topic in Marvel: Crisis Protocol Rules Questions
Yes. Since the pierce effect has already resolved though, rerolling the wild that allowed it does not impact it in any way.- 1 reply

Old cards, new coreset characters
Thoras replied to Nceronit's topic in Marvel: Crisis Protocol Rules Questions
This depends entirely on the team tactic card and the character, there is no single answer due to the differences in wording between cards. You need to pay close attention to the character name and alter ego. Some will be yes, some will be no. No. Well-Laid Plans refers to the character name Doctor Octopus, which the new character in Earth's Mightiest Core set does not have. His character name is Doc Ock, Sinister Scientist -

Triggering Events for Reactive Abilities
Thoras replied to Zafri's topic in Star Wars: Shatterpoint Rules Questions
These would be considered the same event, specifically that a combat action was made. The other checks are conditionals that further restrict the event, but the overall event is that a combat action was made. This is different from the previous example, as what matters here is that an attack was made. The allied dathomirian is a further conditional restriction and the "after" indicates the timing that, in this case, the ability is both used and resolves in. You could potentially use both Life Drain and No One Gets Between Me and My Job as they are reacting to different events. The first is reacting to an attack having been made and the second is reacting to a combat action having occurred. -
He can use both, yes. The event for Riposte is an attack was made, with conditionals of it being a melee attack targeting his Unit. The event for The Sith Lord Strikes Back is that his unit is wounded.

Handmaidens and coordinated fire
Thoras replied to Lawless09's topic in Star Wars: Shatterpoint Rules Questions
The event for all versions of Coordinated Fire is that an attack was made. The check for specific Unit Tags or that it was part of a combat action are not part of the event itself, they are conditionals on the event. You could not use two coordinated fires for the same attack. If the Naboo Royal Handmaidens made a combat action, you could however use Queen Padme Amidal's Coordinated Fire in response to the first character's attack and then the 501sts Coordinated Fire in response to the second characters attack. -
No Knowledge and Defense allows the character benefiting to Heal, not Recover.
