A Discussion came up regarding this interaction - 


"cap's shield throw ricochets and targets a new character. gwen uses life saver and moves the character, which is now outside of range 4 from cap, but still within range 3 of ricochet."
Is the 2nd Bounce attack cancelled due to Life save "not considering special rules" in this case being Caps any range part or does the attack hit because Life saver does not need to consider special rules due to the attack being within range for the attack and in LOS.

The discussion came partly due to the other forum post regarding Caps attack ignoring LOS while Life safer cancels the attack based on its rules stating once out of LOS the attack is cancelled. As seen here, although that seems an obvious case of Life Saver over riding Caps special rule as it satisfies its own rule, in this case does it doesn't seem to satisfy its conditions to not consider caps extended range from the ricochet.

Ricochet provides special rules for determining range to start the extra attack. 

Once the attack is started and Life Saver resolves, the attack has Range 4. Ricochet’s special rules are no longer considered. The Range check will be from Captain America, not the first target.

If the target is out of Range 4 from Captain America, The attack will end as per Life Saver’s rules.

I just noticed this post about special rules and especially that Ghost Spider’s Lifesaver can cancel a special rule.  Is this is the rule book and what page?  What is the timing for this interaction?

 

Thanks

Life Saver cannot cancel a special rule. It ends an attack when the conditions it specifies to end the attack are met. 

Life Saver resolves during step 2d of the attacking timing chart (Appendix A).
