Just a quick question regarding the ATA:

AVENGERS (HEROIC AGE)

Keyword(s): Avengers
Cost: 2
When a character using this team ability is given a move action,
after actions resolve roll a d6 that can’t be rerolled. On a roll of
6, remove an action token from that character.

So maybe I'm just confused by this but my question is more of how this ATA works. So say I attach this to Wolverine. First turn Wolvie runs out and hides in a bush. Would he get the token and then roll for the ATA, or does the ATA only work if he already had a token from the previous turn? I guess it's more of a timing question. He moves the token is given THEN the ATA activates, or He moves the ATA activates, then the token is given...

Am I just looking into this too much? haha

It works in the simple way you probably figure it works.

The ATA activates after the move action resolves. We know from the rulebook that, "[w]hen you give a character any action (other than a free action – see below), give the character an action token as the action resolves and put it near the character’s base on the map."

So "as the action resolves" (per the rulebook), Wolvie gets an action token. Then "after actions resolve" (per the ATA), you roll the d6 and you might get to remove that token that was just assigned to Wolvie.

As i see it: Figure moves, give the token, action Resolves. Roll D6. on a roll of 6, remove the token.

So as I'm seeing it, you could remove the token you just gave the figure


**Edit** MikeTheRed is a faster typer I guess....

Thanks guys, that's what I thought but wanted to get a confirmation (brain also needed a cup of coffee haha)

This seems pretty good on Quasar since he can use P/T as a move action and attack and possibly remove the token.

So I'm looking to run an Avengers team this week at the LGS and I'm interested in the ATA. My question is if only certain sets qualify since it says "Heroic age". I was thinking of using:

Iron Man - 110
Cap'n 'merica - 90
Spidey - 100
Thor - 174
Hulk - 124

Which leaves a perfect fit for this 2 pt ATA to make a 600 pt team. Thanks for your help!

Keyword(s): Avengers

That's who qualifies.

The name of the ATA is just a name and has no real meaning. It could be called "SUPER FUNTIME ATOMIC PUNCH!!!" and Avengers would still be able to use it.

Normalview is correct (per usual ) However, the ATA costs 2 points PER a character with the Avengers keyword. So you could not use the ATA with this team as you would be 8 points over.

I want that ATA name please!

Thanks for your normal awesomesauce Normal. I want that to be an actual ability!

Ah...that I did not know. Thanks Jawa!
