with the addition to radiation leak and poor teamwork alot of discussion has come up about as to the cards being put into play. i have a few questions as well, if they have been brought up before... im sorry, im behind the times. here goes.
1) I know that if the judge says that BFC cards can be used in play they are allowed. My question is, MUST they be played by everyone? or can someone opt to play no cards at all?
2) How many cards can you play in a single match? Is it just one or more?
3) Why arent marvels BCF cards as cool as these?!

There were conflicting reports between the MM rule insert and the official tourney rules, as I learnt today. They are optional right now. If you have them, you can play them (Just like rules for 3-d objects). If you don't have any BFC, you're out of luck. Hair10 has said on the Wizkids forum that right now the judge still has final say if they will be used or not at each tourney.

You take with you a number of different BFC = to the number of rounds in the tourney minus 1. 1 round you will not get to use a BFC that way. You and your opponent get to play 1 BFC each in each round.

I love Taunt and Trick Shot personally
KILOWOG not KILOWAG, KILAWOG or KILAWAG ROGUE not ROUGE (which happens to be RED in French) GRAVITON not GRAVITRON (Decepticon that never got made?)
Except that Taunt and Trick Shot are feats not battlefield conditions....

If you bring BFC cards to a tournament, you may only place into your hand a number equal to the number of rounds in the tournament, minus one (as Tylk said above). You then need to put into your hand a number of "placeholder" cards (unpunched Bystanders and Feat cards work pretty well) so that your total number of cards in your hand is equal to the number of rounds in the tournament.
At the beginning of each round (after choosing map and sides, placing objects and revealing teams, but before placing teams), each player chooses one card and reveals them at the same time. You must choose one card. (You can choose a placeholder, though, and if you aren't playing any BFCs, you might opt not to have a hand of cards, but that may be a strategic disadvantage.) That card is in effect for that game, and is removed from the tournament after that round.
In each round, you *will* play one of your cards. Even if it's a placeholder, it is no longer available after that round. So, if you use all your BFCs before the final round, you only have the placeholder left for the last round. Conversely, if you use all but one BFC before the last round, that is the BFC you *must* use in that round.
The exception to this is if the player receives a "Bye"; players with a Bye do not play a card for that round, and would then end the tournament with one unplayed card in their hand. (This advantage is to make up slightly for the disadvantage of having a Bye; it really can hurt your tiebreakers.)

An Admin told me that I'm "too smart" for Another Realm. I hold that as a standing order.

Which is similar to almost any rule in Heroclix in terms that a Judge can house rule almost anything.
