Looking at running a team with the Violet Lantern, which states
"Light: Continual. Characters within 4 squares of this object that can use Mind Control modify their range value for that attack by +2 (figures with a range of 0 replace their range with 6 instead of 4 for that attack), and if that attack is successful, each character successfully hit modifies its damage value by +1 until its free action granted by Mind Control is resolved."
Now Sauramon has a powers that grants him this.
"THE POWER OF ISENGARD: Saruman can use Mind Control as if he had a range of 10; when he does, he ignores elevated and blocking terrain for line of fire purposes."
Since he does not have a printed range value of 10, would he still be able to Mind Control for 12 (10 + 2 for the Violet Lantern)?
When I came on board as RA I brought with me a mission to meet the intent of a power/ability and a firm distaste for exploits or loopholes that circumvented the intention of a rule. That's where the Rules team comes in.
