Am I just stupid or what? (Rhetorical question no need for comments) So I'm reading the Galactus rules, and under the Scenerio rules it sez Galactus does not get any action tokens put on him. That is all well and good...no problem there, but then under the Galactus as part of a force rules; a whole paragraph was devoted to explaining when and how action tokens are put on Galactus, yet it turns out you can push Galactus every turn and he doesn't take push damage.....so what's bewildering me is: What is the point of putting action tokens on Galactus? What are they marking? It's not like the action tokens limit him in any way...you get to use him once every turn. And no matter how many tokens he has he's never going to take any push damage...so what was the point of making him put action tokens on in the first place and cluttering up the map with more unnessesary tokens?

i believe it's to show that Galactus used an action per the actions allotted (which wouldnt matter if he's the only fig), but if you supported him w/ other figs, then you would need to remember who took actions and who never.

Someone could turn off the TA in order to ditch Psychic Blast and pick up Pulse Wave or Energy Explosion by taking push damage.

why does your name and Perplex always seam to go together....?


Anyway, you're right. The tokens really don't matter, as G never takes damage from pushing.

Me, I wouldn't ever bother putting the tokens down for him. It's just that simple.

Perhaps nevermind. It seems that there is a bit in the rules that duplicates the TAs auto-Willpower, and that duplicated bit doesn't seem optional.

sylentspy....I'm sorry but I have to make fun of you for your post.

You're thinking that a player playing a team with a 16 inch tall 600 - 1800 point figure might "Forget" if he used Galactus on the current turn? Um, and what about after turn 2 when he has 2 action tokens on him, and that never changes on subsequent turns??? At that point it doesn't really help you much looking down and seeing the same two action tokens there that have been on him for the last 7 turns.

Player 1 - did your Galactus act yet this turn?

Player 2- dunno, have you had 2 200pt+ figures KOd this turn?

Player 1 - nope

Player 2 - Then Galactus hasn't acted yet!
