Quick question:

Using a PD theme (golden age) and I thought it would be fun to add a bunch of hookers (con artists) for giggles and perplex.

I have like ten of them and I was wondering on a open map and if I have line of sight could each of them perplex a single target's attack values?

I realize that each value could not be modified by more than three but could all ten perplex the same clix on the same turn?

Thanks!

Yes, you can max out all of the stats by three if you had enough perplex. There was a move back in the day known as the "hooker bomb" where you activate pulse wave, targeting all of the con artists to get to their second click. This pretty much was responsible for the rule of three and changes to pulse wave.

thanks much!

At one point everyone thought as you did with unlimited modifiers and there was much broken-ness in HC. And that folks is why the Rule of 3 was invented.

Its important to note though that the Rule of 3 only governs the sum total and not the number of modifiers.

ex.
-You use 10 Con Artists to boost a single target X +10 AV.
-Your opponent uses Perplex to give X -1 AV.
-The overall difference would still be +9 AV.
- The Rule of 3 caps the difference at +3 AV.

wont the Con Artist break the PD theme?

Doc Sampson, 6-8 hookers and a secondary attacker. I remember doing 11 damage each turn before that pesky rule of three came around. Won my first tournament this way. ^.^
I'm glad it was fixed though, that was gross.

The one I remember was un096 Magog, R Mandroid, 6 R Con Artists

Turn 1 all 6 CAs moved into position
Turn 2 all 6 CAs perplexed up Magog's Attack and Damage (+2 Att, +4 Dmg), Mandroid TKs Magog out, Magog Charges with Exploit Weakness and a heavy object with a 15 Attack and 11 Damage penetrating

I just got hit by the old Magog with ultra heavy tk'd nightmare last week. Good times.
