I understand that Nova Blast ignores Willpower and any TAs. However, does Nova Blast ignore Indomitable? I would say it the fig would take no damage. Am I right? So a character with Indomitable can use Nova Blast while not taking the 2 damage?

Absolutely correct.
Which makes SR Ultron even more terrifying.

I have a better idea in mind for next week's tourney using Pulse Wave and Nova Blast, and Outwit. I'll be able to wipe an entire 400 point team in about 2 turns.

I went 3 and 0 tonight using Thor & Loki team tonight. I'll post in a day or two in the proper forum my Thor & Loki unbeatable team, and I really mean unbeatable.

Thanks for the help! Rep given!

Yeah that was made known back in Secret Invasion, To date there are 4 figs, But Ultron and LE Thor are the only ones top dial that can do it.

a similar trick is using Endurance to soak up the pushing clicks by the way.

Thanks again Quebbster. All of you have a great Thanksgiving! I'll tell you what I have planned after I do it in the Strategy and Tactics forum. And I'll post my unbeatable Thor and Loki Duo team there too.

One more question...

The new Captain America's LOF is only blocked by Indoor Blocking Terrain and Walls. If a character has Camouflage feat card, Cap can still draw a LOF to said character even if that character is up against a wall or blocking terrain for a Ranged Combat Attack., correct? I know that in most cases, no LOF can be made for Ranged Combat Attacks, but Outwit and Perplex can still be used, as Camouflage doesn't effect LOF in general, but only for Ranged Combat Attacks. But it appears that Cap's special power over-rules the feat in this regard, and can make LOF for Ranged Combat Attacks.

We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in Europe, but hey, you have a great weekend anyway!
(it's not like it's a bad weekend over here anyway... it's the official start of the Christmas season...)

That seems to be the consensus here, yes. A feat card is not a wall or indoor blocking terrain.

...ungrateful savages...

Happy holidays, then!

After realizing how cool Indomitable is, I think I'm going to have to try haymaker on Heimdall. This could be fun.

Try it on Power Man and Iron Fist.

They have the symbol. Since Haymaker gives -1, that reduction isn't applied to them when using Haymaker.

Endurance says: "When the character would be dealt pushing damage, you can instead choose to deal no damage to the character and put an endurance token on this card." So does this mean you only put one token on the Endurance card? IE When using Nova Blast.

It was ruled (and is now in the Player's Guide) that when using Endurance, you add one token for every click of pushing damage.

So Nova Blast all by its lonesome would add two tokens... and if you pushed to do it, you'd be adding three.

I blow you up now, and blow myself up later...

My Judge won't let us use any of the combos that involve indomitable and feat cards that cause pushing damage. He says that it doesn't coincide with the spirit of the game as most of those feat cards were created YEARS before anybody had indomitable. For the most part I don't mind. However, I would love to blast the #### out of someone with Ultron like that.

An even better trick is to use The Chief's "Manipulate" tokens. Check it. It lets you get by scott-free with Nova Blast.


That's an early Christmas present for all you cheesers.
