So the blurb about Morgan la Fey suggests that you can use Mind Control to move or act with your own figures without giving them an action.

At first I thought this was just a typo. I looked into the rules, and they do say that you cannot target friendly figures with damaging attacks. Mind Control, however, specifically says that it deals no damage. So, technically, you can Mind Control your own figures to, say, move, then again to attack, and then again to leap away, all in the same round and without your figure even getting an action token (provided you had 3 Mind Controllers with the proper LOS and range and 3 actions).

But if you look again at the description of Mind Control, it says that while Mind Controlled, the figure is "friendly to you and opposing to your opponent." No problem, they were already anyway. But after the Mind Control action, they become "opposing to you and friendly to its owner's force." But you are its owner, creating an inherent paradox in that the figure is now opposing and friendly to you.

Hmmmm.....

Anybody out there know the solution to this?

Yep, the new FAQs address this issue. You cannot target friendly figures with MC even if it does "no damage".

Directly from the FAQ:Not doable.

So what's with the description of Morgan la Fey?

I think it was supposed to mean that you could move their force around you. I got excited when I read that the first time too.

Mind Controlling your own figures would bring back taxiing, but make it a LOT more expensive. Jer wouldn't mind, but it would be abused...
