If Prof X MC's Mandarin and has Mandarin MC V Ultron, how are the points of damage for MC'ing a char over 100 pts. allocated :

a) Mandarin gets the 1 click of damage for MC'ing Ultron and Prof X gets 1 click of damage for MC'ing Mandarin.

b) Mandarin gets 1 click of damage for MC'ing Ultron and Prof x gets 2 clicks of damage because the total points of Mandarin and Ultron is over 200.

c) Neither of the above.( if this on please enlighten me)


thanks for your help.

I agree.

I've had huge chains of people mcing each other. It makes for an interesting game.

I had the Leader hijack almost my entire team last week; he mind-controlled my Sauron to mind-control my Abomination to punch Sauron! And then there's that willpower... man, I've come to respect the Leader!

Unless I'm missing something you got the fuzzy end of the lollypop on that one. Once Sauron mind-controls Abomination then they are considered friendly. So, he couldn't hit Sauron.

Alas, some people (including several of the local TDs :-p) play that as soon as he MCs someone else, his action is over and he reverts to the opponent's control.

Actually you can becuase once your action is done you revert back to the opposing player. You mind controled his action is done. He reverts back to the opposing player.

Its also been said that if Elektra mindcontrols 2 targets at the same time your still doing 1 targets actions first. So they are still enemies with each other.

Did this rule change? I was pretty sure that it's been said several times on this forum that if you mind control a mind controller who then takes over someone else then they are all on the same team. I remember the little indented examples where people outlined how the mind controller's actions weren't done until the person they're controlling is done.

And it doesn't make sense to me that if I mind control someone they are considered friendly to me while I'm doing their action but if I mind control someone to mind control someone then the same rules don't apply to that second mind control as the first.

The person who mind controls is done as soon as u succeed. Its been said on the forums. This way several times.

As soon as you Mind Control that person turn is done. Its now the Mind Controled turn. Which if he mind controls his turn is done right there.

Err, not quite, Manchine. Elektra's dual-target MC is a whole different story, allowing each target to take an action while still opposing to the other figure. When setting up a normal MC chain, each successive action takes place within the action of the last MCer.

If there is an MC chain of Prof X-->Mandarin-->Sauron-->White Queen-->Thug, then the character whose action finishes first is the Thug. The end of his action signals the end of, essentially, a bubble action within White Queen's, and so her action ends after the Thugs. When hers ends, Sauron's will end and the chain continues until finally the original figure's MC is also over. No figure in the chain may attack an earlier figure from the chain, as the will still be considered friendly.

I've found a couple of threads saying the action is not over as soon as you succeed:
http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showth...threadid=32474
http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showth...threadid=22867

And the example in the FAQ shows Prof X's action not being done until Spidey is finished performing his action.

Exactly.

According to the 'Kids, the Abomination could NOT have attacked Sauron.

Ok misunderstood that one. Its Elektra's fault. Ya thats it. Even Judges learn. THat's why I Hit the bat signal. Asked Herocomplex to make sure I was saying it right(in other words PMed him). Becuase I wasnt 100%. But I know when to ask for help.

And knowing is half the battle . Although... what does that leave for the other half of the battle? Getting help I guess?
