Map-wide attacks

So, it recently clicked for me (haha), that the new Apache Chief...

Quote

070 Apache Chief
Real Name: Unknown
Team: No Affiliation
Range: 0
Points: 50/30
Keywords: Justice League, Super Friends

TROUBALERT: COME IN, APACHE CHIEF!: SIDELINE ACTIVE - Friendly characters have "FREE: If this character critical missed this turn or made the third attack this turn to miss all opposing targets, place a character from your Sideline that can use a TroubAlert trait adjacent on its blue starting line" // At the beginning of your turn, if Apache Chief started the game due to the TroubAlert trait, roll a d6. 4-6: deal Apache Chief 1 unavoidable damage.

PEOPLE WHO ARE TOO SMALL, MY OCCASIONAL WEAKNESS!: Characters with

modify their attack +2 when targeting only Apache Chief. Characters with

modify defense +2 when Apache Chief attacks them.

INUK CHUK!: FREE: If Apache Chief has

, he gains

. If he has

, he gains

. If he has

, give him a Big Man token. //For each Big Man token, increase his Giant Reach by +1 and modify attack +1. When Apache Chief attacks a character with

, modify his damage +1 for each Big Man token. Apache Chief's size can't be changed by other effects.

...if given enough time, can use Quake and Giant Reach: 12+ to make a map-wide attack, if the map is outdoors (so blocking isn't a problem). Basically, he can make an attack that targets every single opposing character, anywhere on the map, unless another colossal blocks his line of fire.

That got me thinking: Are there any other characters that can do this? Make an attack that targets every (opposing?) character on the map at once?

Thanks, although that's not really what I was asking. I was curious if there are other characters that can make map-wide attacks.

RAGE: SOUL IGNITING: Spectre can use Poison, and deals penetrating damage when using it. At the beginning of the game and whenever Spectre KO's an opposing character of 25 or more points, put a Soul Reap counter on this card. When he uses Poison, opposing figures within X squares and line of fire are considered adjacent, where X is the number of Soul Reap counters on this card.

Quote

BUILDING SHOVE: Give Giant-Man a power action if he is adjacent to elevated terrain. All characters occupying that level of elevated terrain within that same continuous border are dealt 1 penetrating damage and knocked back 1 square.

Circumstances providing.

Quote

OMNI-WAVE PROJECTOR: Supreme Intelligence may target characters anywhere on the map with a ranged combat attack regardless of range and line of fire unless there is an opposing character of 100 points or more adjacent to him. When Supreme Intelligence targets a character with an attack, if that character isn't within range and line of fire, his damage value is 3 and is locked.

I'm not positive if this mixes with pulsewave for a full map pulse(though i know they wont' lose their powers unless they within half range). but if the opponent only has 3 figures, it's as good as a full map attack.

Heroclix is serious business.

These guys, if you're playing on a map with elevated. Even better that they don't have to roll to attack.

Giant Reach is not a combat value and is not subject to the Rule of Three

Rule of Three only applies to Speed, Attack, Defense, Damage, and Range.

Quote

THE RULE OF THREE
Whenever the sum of all modifiers applied to a single
combat value is greater than +3 or less than -3, the sum of all modifiers is instead +3 or -3, respectively.

Quote

COMBAT VALUES
A character has five combat values. Four of them appear
through the slot next to a symbol of the same type: speed, attack , defense , and damage . These
values may change when you click the character’s combat dial. The fifth combat value is the character’s range. It is printed on the character’s base, next to one or more

symbols.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize it was only combat values.

Well, there were certainly more characters with this kind of potential than I expected. Cool!

If Quake is compatible with Giant Reach: X (which it is), then I don't see why Pulse Wave wouldn't be compatible with Supreme Intelligence's OMNI-WAVE PROJECTOR. Quake specifically asks you to target all adjacent opposing characters. It doesn't even ask you to choose, but Giant Reach: X can still overwrite it to target all opposing characters within X squares and line of fire.

Pulse Wave says half range etc. then make range attack.
