CRACK ENEMY COMUNICATIONS:#At the beginning of the game, choose a team ability that an opposing character can use that isn't a Wild Card team ability or a team ability a Wild Card can't use. Friendly characters can use that team ability this game in addition to their other team abilities as long as Cypher is on the map.

Tbolts

Once at the beginning of the game, choose any one Marvel team ability other than an alternate team ability, a wild card team ability, or a team ability that can‘t be used by wild cards. Characters using this team ability can use the chosen team ability if they can‘t already.


If my opponent goes first and chooses to cypher my t-bolts do I get to choose two different TAs for my figures that already have t-bolts? Or can I choose a different TA for my natural t-bolts and a different TA for my cyphered t-bolts?

If I go first and I already have a fig with t-bolts do I get to choose different TAs for my figs that already have t-bolts.

It's an open issue. check the "final word" forum.

Your doubt is if your figures already have TBolts and you use Cypher to get it again?

As was said, Cypher and Thunderbolts is still an open issue. But, considering the "current" interpretation (that you may copy it and choose a TA as if you had added it to your force), I'll answer how I personally view the situation (not quite sure of it):
Your figures that already can use Thunderbolts can't use it twice, so they gain nothing. The others would get to use the same TA you choose for the first ones, as you only make the choice for the ATA once for your entire force.

Check this thread. Towards the end Norm gives what he believes the outcome will be, but still nothing official.

You are missing some important information here. Do both teams have Cypher? Do both teams have a Thunderbolt? If the answer is yes to both of those, then this is really going to depend on how they rule the Cypher/Thunderbolt issue.

The question is does Cypher steal Thunderbolts, or does he steal the TA you chose with Thunderbolts? They have not made a ruling yet.

Please see the updated Final Word:

thanks to all the oranges for getting this in, good to have this ruled on and this way

Ok now my question is I have cypher and tbolts my opponent has tbolts he choose mystics for tbolts I choose ultimates. if I cypher his tbolts what happens to my figures that already have tbolts since they choose a different TA from the one my opponent choose? My figures without tbolts already would gain mystics in this case right?

Cypher would not be able to actually choose Thunderbolts, but would be able to choose the ability chosen with it, in this case Mystics. So all of your characters would be able to use Mystics.
