Can Lockjaw carry a character with and in addition to a tiny character?
Quote
TELEPORTING DOG: Lockjaw can use the Carry ability. When he does, he can either carry up to 2 friendly characters or he can ignore the combat symbols of the carried character.
Tiny Size: Modify this character’s defense value by +1 against ranged combat attacks. A friendly character that is larger and adjacent can use the Carry ability to carry up to one HeroClix Tiny Symbol character regardless of its other combat symbols, does not reduce its speed value for doing so and can continue to use the Carry ability if it can normally. This ability can’t be countered.
I'm fairly sure that the one Tiny character is "free" and doesn't count against any sort of carry limit. In this instance, Lockjaw could carry two characters, plus the Tiny one.
The one limitation I'm aware of is that characters who explicitly have abilities that say they cannot carry (MODOK for example) cannot carry Tiny characters either.
"It is a fool's prerogative to utter truths that no one else will speak." "Prove you have the strength and courage to be free."

The answer is No, he can't carry both and . He is allow to carry in addition to Lockjaw special ability version of his carry (but you can only carry 1 or 1 based on your example)
Let's back up to Lockjaw ability says you can use one OR the other special carry ability (of Lockjaw's), NOT BOTH. He should only be carrying 2 friendly following using normal carry rules (only bypassing the limit from 1 friendly character to 2 friendly characters). He shouldn't be able to carry a friendly character with a using this part of the ability. His other optional ability allows to carry 1 friendly character ignoring the combat symbols, than he would be allow to carry only 1 friendly character.
You only allow to carry 1 (or *) friendly character or 2 friendly characters that aren't (or *) with Lockjaw's special ability.
Other characters you can't normally carry are
*(, , , )
**any larger characters, multi-based characters, and characters holding an object can never be carried
The answer is No He can't carry both and . He is allow to carry in addition to Lockjaw special ability version of his carry (but you can only 1 or 1 based on your example)
He didn't ask about two different characters. He asked about a character with and .
So if you can use Lockjaw's special Carry to carry that guy (ignoring ). Plus, has their own rules for Carry which allows *ANY* larger character (including Lockjaw) to also Carry them.
So, yes, you can use Lockjaw to Carry both a and plus a .
Why mini-Necro this thread? It was about a month old? I'm not jumping on you I'm just very curious. This thread had to be several pages deep. Were you looking for an answer to a different question and came across this or did someone use this as evidence against you?
