Is the Rivals Panel Spider-Man model tied to a specific character?
The Spider-Man miniature from the Rival Panels: Spider-Man vs. Doctor Octopus represents Spider-Man (Peter Parker)
On 8/7/2023 at 7:08 PM, KoseyW said:with an official Spectacular Spider-Man card could you field the Rivals Panel model as him?
This would not be supported in official tournaments, no.

let’s say I don’t like the symbiote for Spectacular Spider-Man and swap it with the tactical explosion from the RP Spider-Man or ASM.
Is he still a legal model? Or because he has pieces from multiple boxes he isn’t anymore
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. -
This rule would only benefit a single character from a multiple character unit

Can crossbones make an advance while under the Influence of Dig In
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.

I just didn’t see a conversation around the power that would be spent on the attack itself
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/)

Am I correct in understanding that personal Effects from expertise happen in 10A or 10B depending on if you are the attacker or defender
Yes

Correct

Can Mother Talzin Manipulating Hand a Pinned enemy character and still have the Dash resolve, or would it remove the Pinned condition instead? The wording of Pinned suggests that the character Talzin is manipulating would just remove the Pin
It would remove the Pinned condition
18 hours ago, ArtificerAlf said:The same for a Talzin trying to Manipulating Hand a Strained character. Would they dash, take 3 damage, and remove the Strained condition
Yes

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.

Several variations of how this works out are found across these threads. In most cases, you are correct, but there are nuances

My question is if the target of the attack is changed from MODOK to another character do the second and third sentences of Compelled Minion resolve?
They do not. The attack has to be resolving against him at the correct timing step(which it wouldn’t be)

Dazed characters cannot be affected by superpowers, so you can not use a dazed character with this superpower.

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)

Would the attacker's wild pierce happen first then the defender's witty banter can reroll that wild pierce (Which I would assume follows the timing chart since the attacker is applying effects first then the defender applies rerolls)?
Yes. Since the pierce effect has already resolved though, rerolling the wild that allowed it does not impact it in any way.

If I play Sovereign Strike on a terrain piece that would cause my Ultron Drones to die (assuming they've taken 1 or 2 damage so far). Would they be brought back in the same action from Ultron's card?
They could be, yes.
On 10/20/2023 at 1:19 PM, HavoKDarK said:On the card for Sovereign Strike it says the damage happens before the terrain piece is destroyed. Does this allow for the timing for the killing of the bots before the terrain piece is destroyed allowing for them to return?
Yes

The attacker will have an opportunity to pay when the attack switches over to the new character

Can new coreset characters use old tactics cards?
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.
On 10/28/2023 at 2:47 AM, Nceronit said:For example, can Doc Ock, Sinister Scientist use Well Laid Plan?
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

If a character has a condition and another character gives them the condition again and causes a damage, does that damage count as having come from that model?
Yes
On 10/17/2023 at 12:00 AM, TheUnseemlyOne said:For example;Obi-Wan, Out of Hiding has 7 damage and pinned. Jango Fett uses Capture Wire, giving Obi Wan pinned, which causes him to take damage and become wounded instead. Is that damage considered to have come from Jango, allowing him to use I’m Just Looking to Get Paid?
On 10/21/2023 at 9:02 PM, Morgan Reid said:If Jango Fett, Bounty Hunter uses Capture Wire on an enemy Primary character that has 1 Stamina remaining and is already Pinned, does the Capture Wire applying the Pin condition (and therefore 1 damage due to existing Pin and Wound the character) enable Jango to trigger 'I'm just looking to get paid', refresh 2 Force and Recover 2?
Yes

Padawan Ahsoka has 'After an allied Galactic Republic Supporting Unit within Range 3 makes a combat action...' on her reactive ability.
Cad Bane has 'After another allied Unit makes a combat action...' on his reactive ability.
Would these be the same triggering condition (assuming all requirements for both are met) or do they have to have the exact same wording to count?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.
On 9/5/2023 at 5:26 PM, Zafri said:Mother Talzin having 'After an allied Dathomirian character makes an attack...' on her reactive.
This wording is different again but is happening at effectively the same point so does it also count as the same or not?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.
-
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.

It will not work with this character, no, as the full character name includes Merciless Merc
