[Sabretooth Savage Predator and Finisher]

Am I correct in understanding that Finisher happens in step 14a?

Yes

On 12/9/2022 at 11:46 PM, pa8rut said:

Does that mean that this attack (Claw Slash from Finisher) happens before an enemy can use a reactive after attack super power similar to Rapid Fire?

If it is a 14b effect, then yes.

On 12/9/2022 at 11:46 PM, pa8rut said:

Additionally, since Finisher doesn't require the additional Claw Slash to target the original target, could Sabretooth attack two different characters before either enemy character gets to respond with an after attack effect?

Yes

[Sacrifice & Memory Token]

Is the leader adding defense dice or is the defender to the defense roll?

The character being attacked is adding dice to its own defense roll.

A character that has played Sacrifice will be unable to add dice to its defense roll as a result of "It was YOU!!!"

Does the Resolve Criticals step take place when using the new Mystic Beam?

Yes. However, a character performing the Mystic Beam attack provided by the Crisis does not get to add additional dice to their attack roll as a result of Critical dice.

[Sentinel Power Matrix with forced activation]

They would not, no.

Gaining an activated token in this way does not allow the character to perform rules triggered by the end of their activation.

[Dossier, Angela, Medusa]

They will be unable to use the reroll to their attack dice that Dossier provides . The "can't" rule on their cards takes precedence over the general "can" rule provided by Dossier.

Can a character gain and use a leadership for an affiliation they are not a part of?

Yes

On 12/1/2022 at 2:27 PM, Kaza said:

How would this interact with the leadership only working on Weapon X characters, would Wolverine count as Weapon X due to being a leader

No

Can 'Wolverine' use the team tactics card 'Are you sure you want to remember?' so long as he is part of a Weapon X affiliated squad thus gaining him the Weapon X Leadership ability despite not being Weapon X affiliated and despite not being able to benefit from the Leadership ability because he's not Weapon X affiliated?

Yes

[Flurry/Martial prowess and dazes]

This ruling is being modified.

The answer is now that Valkyrie will take no damage as a result of Martial Prowess.

Even though the superpower was triggered and used prior to the defender being dazed, the effect can no longer resolve if they are Dazed or KO'd.

[Non player effects]

Hello,

First very good job on the new crisis cards.

My question is: are the effects of a crisis cards are non player effects ?

Thanks !!!

Yes.

Note that non-player effects from crisis cards have timing specific to them found in Appendix A. Specifically, they are always resolved after non-player effects that are not crisis effects.

Is it secure instead of controlling?

Yes.

Whether you are controlling a point has no relevance to the card. You need to be securing all Secure Objective tokens to play it now.

[Layout C clarification]

Both side measurements are the same measurement.

The tools on the left are meant to be showing only the measurement to the centre token.

[Who resolves the push on SWORD base]

2 minutes ago, Grey130 said:

It says the winner chooses the character, but then adds the line about the opposing player resolves the push.  Is that the opposing player to the winner, or opposing player to the character chosen?

The player who is in command of the security system will choose a character and then resolve the push on that character.

[Control vs Secure on new Riots Spark crisis]

That is a typo in the scoring section of this card and should read

"Players score 1 VP for each Extremis Console they Secure during the Cleanup Phase."

[Research Station scoring timing]

As of the Crisis update on December 9th, 2022, you are now required to be securing the researcher to also score the additional victory point for having the researcher within range 1 of the Evac Point

[On "Research Station Attacked" is it possible to score VP when not Securing the Civilian.]

As of the Crisis update on December 9th, 2022, the answer is no.

You are now required to be securing the researcher to also score the additional Victory point for having the researcher within range 1 of the evac point

[PARANOIA PUMMELS POPULACE! Scoring question]

1 minute ago, Mattomattick said:

This can result in one additional VP per player max

Correct

1 minute ago, Mattomattick said:

For example, if I have both Magneto and Mystique holding a disturbance, and they're both within range 2 of an allied character, I score 3 total points (1 for each disturbance held, and 1 for having one or more characters within 2 of an allied character), right?

Correct

[Challenger event rules question]

That will ultimately be up to the event organizer to determine, but it sounds as though you are describing a concession, which according to the challenger document would be scored like this

Quote

Concession: One player voluntarily concedes the match. The conceding player receives a loss and their opponent receives a win. The winning player receives 14 VPs or their current total, whichever is greater. Collusion between players is not permitted under the sportsmanship rules of this document. If a Watcher believes players are attempting to manipulate the scoring system, the players should either be given warnings or be ejected from the event.

[World domination]

The latest FAQ/Errata is available here - https://www.atomicmassgames.com/rules

World domination has an errata requiring the secure objectives be secured rather than controlled, nothing along the lines of what your mentioning here.

[Timing of Professionals Team Tactics Card]

Does the card need to be played before Hawkeye does the damage required to trigger the effect?

Yes

1 hour ago, Shepard said:

Example: During an allied Captain America's activation, Hawkeye and Black Widow each pay 2 power to play Professionals. On my next turn, I activate Hawkeye, attack and deal damage to an enemy character holding an objective token that is within range 2 of Black Widow. Do I move the objective token?

Correct

Can the card be played after the required trigger and positioning is met?

No

[Patch up use]

On 12/1/2022 at 3:59 PM, Fred said:

I have a charatcter A that is active, He is in 2 of an inactive allied character B. A use patch up, B pay the cost to heal A, is it a legal use?

Whoever is paying the cost is playing the card, so B would be using patchup and paying the cost to remove damage from A.

On 12/1/2022 at 3:59 PM, Fred said:

Character A is the active character, he use patch up (assuming A is in 2 of  B) and choose charcater B  that is a non active allied character, A pay the cost to heal B, is it legal too?

Yes

On 12/1/2022 at 3:59 PM, Fred said:

Case 3 :

A is not in 2 of B, A use patch up, Allied character C that is in 2 of B can pay to heal B or not?

A is irrelevant to this scenario even if A is still the active character. C can use/play the card and pay the cost to heal B even during A's activation.

[AIM Lackeys in the middle of an activation]

The character would not be able to use the benefit during its current activation.

Turn and activation are being used interchangeably in the question, but they are not the same thing, so I'll mention that the card can be played on the players turn before choosing a character to activate.

[Sentinels Power Matrix vs Advanced R&D]

There is no window to play an active tactics card during the end of the characters activation.

[Alien Ship: Kree Core - If you double move to objective, roll successfully to get the core, do you take damage?]

Yes

[Black Cat Bad luck and Disruption Field]

Yes, Crimson Dynamo may still use disruption field and the attacking character will be required to reroll their dice.

This works because Black Cat prevents the attacking character from modifying their own dice, but disruption field is Crimson Dynamo modifying their dice.

[Mission Objective and Crisis Damage]

This will depend on the wording of the specific crisis in question.

For this specific question, miles would not suffer the effects of the cube. The effects of this crisis are on a per cube basis, so if the particular cube has already resolved its effects, it will not resolve the effects a second time.

[Malekith Ferocity]

Can Magneto gain his Mystic Defense vs these effects?

He would still be able to use his mystic defense against the attack, yes.

On 10/25/2022 at 2:20 PM, Mc1gamer said:

Force Projection still apply for dodging still

He would not be performing a dodge roll in the case of him himself being thrown.

On 10/25/2022 at 2:20 PM, Mc1gamer said:

Also, can Thor, and any other character then with a superpower throw, or any other character with similarly worded ability, still throw Magneto since it's not part of an attack action?

A superpower throw is not prevented by Force projection as you are not being attacked or making a dodge roll when Magneto himself is being thrown by a superpower.

On 10/25/2022 at 2:20 PM, Mc1gamer said:

Does any superpower that has an attack followed by a throw also work on Magneto?

This is not a unique interaction to Malekith, if the other rule in question is worded the same as Ferocity is, it will work the same. Feel free to provide specific examples.
