A question:

Is there a limit per turn to how many times you can use the Injustice League TA? If I have two different pairs of characters, all with the IL TA and adjacent to opposing characters, can they all use the TA on the same turn?

And since the TA description says when "two or more" IL members are adjacent, if I have three adjacent to the same opposing character, they can all attack them for only 1 action from my allotment for that turn, correct?

Also, the new description of the IL TA is this:

When two or more friendly members of this team are adjacent to the same member of an opponent's force, they may each make a close combat or a ranged combat action against that character using only one action from your allotment of actions for the turn. All characters attacking in this way receive an action token.

So this means that the ability now works for close combat AND ranged combat. Is that correct?

Thanks in advance for any replies!

nasty ability

You can not give any one character more than one non-free action per turn. So you can't use the IJL TA to make, say, Joker attack twice in the same turn. Other than that, there is no limit to the number of times you may use the IJL TA.

If the TA says "ranged combat", then it says "ranged combat". I am not sure what other confirmation you need

Yeah, I know it's a lame ability. I'm just trying to get straight how it works.

It's kind of like leadership, but you don't have to roll for it and, if I read it correctly, can be used more than once per turn.

This wording is new. It used to be only close combat.

The judge at my local venue says they can't do a ranged combat as part of the IL TA unless it shows up on the latest PAC. That's why I'm asking for a confirmation.

No No...I like the IL ability, seriously

the General = 5 clicks of damage

All this means is that a flyer can use range against another flyer or grounded figure. This doesn't mean shooting a target 10 squares away - you have to be adjacent to the target.

The wording change really only helps flying IL members, as they still have to make the attack against the figure they're adjacent to.

As for "the wording has to show up on the PAC," there are specific documents available on the WizKids site that have the current wordings of the specific universes' team abilities. Those are official documents as well.

If he insists that it must be on the latest PAC, grab yours from Danger Room and ask him what Serpent Society's team ability is.

(Holy carp! Or just check the DC Icons PAC! It's on there.)

Yeah, it's still extremely difficult to pull off and you probably would be better using The Society.

The adjacency part ruins it.

And the fact that most IL figs are over 50 points. You are never likely to need the extra actions.

If there were a 15 point IL mook, then you could use gangs of them.

It is reasonable to think that the TA will be rewritten in the new DC base set. It may become like the new Masters of Evil, like the Society by default, or like something totally new.

The way Seth was talking about using it in his Shadow Thief write-up, I'm not so sure.

I hop so though. Maybe just MOE, or something else.
