THE NEW GOD OF WAR: Wonder Woman can use Combat Reflexes. When turning the dial and this power is revealed, stop turning the dial and once per game you may roll a d6 and heal Wonder Woman of half the result. If you do, Wonder Woman can use Battle Fury. This power can not be countered or ignored.
That once per game healing doesn't specify itself as an action (free or otherwise). Does that mean it can be done immediately after that power is revealed?
Also "If you do, Wonder Woman can use Battle Fury." What's the duration for this? Does the power need to be showing?
Wonder Woman's stop click works each time it would appear, unless there is an effect that would prevent it from being used (Pulse Wave, Agent 13, etc.).
The roll required to heal can occur on your opponent's turn.
Battle Fury gained by TNGoW lasts for the rest of the game, even if the SP is no longer showing (as determined by WK).
I normally use her with an assigned Nurse construct: This allows her to heal, while avoiding the addition of BF that may prevent her from making ranged attacks (Rifle construct, thrown held objects).

I thought the rule of thumb was, if there is no duration specified, it lasts for the rest of the game? Misconception?

Yes, misconception. Unless a power expressly said so, all powers are lost if they don't show on the combat dial.
A very good example of this is fl 206 Rag Doll's trait:
Quote
YOUR FAMILIES ARE MY HOSTAGES: When Rag Doll is KO'd by an opponent's attack, that character modifies its attack value by -2 for the rest of the game, even if this ability is lost.
Because under normal rules that a trait is lost when a character is KO'd after the trait triggers, the wording of "even if this ability is lost" continues the effect long after Rag Doll is KO'd.

Yes, a misconception. A power lasts for as long as it is in play (showing on the dial), unless is specifically says otherwise.
Hence my confusion regarding Wonder Woman. The power says WW can use Battle Fury if she used the option to heal, but if she healed, then she's not on that click anymore.
Does it mean she'll have Battle Fury the next time she's on that stop click?
Given that the healing effect can only happen once per game, if WW was already healed through TNGoW, she would retain Battle Fury.
Unless WK redacts the original ruling-- retaining BF even after the SP is not showing-- she'd still have Battle Fury, regardless of her click #.

Not going to happen. I think that WW's power is going to be declared an errata and amended either through another watch list or through a new Player's Guide.
