It was clear to me too.... before the FAQ. But the FAQ is poorly worded. It says "for each target successfully hit", not "to each target that recieves damage."
To me "successfully hit" just means that the roll was high enough to hit a target. It seems possible to successfully hit someone and not deal damage (0 DV, or 1 DV versus toughness).

Originally posted by WadeDeadpool In the general FAQ, they mentioned all lines are compatible. Does this mean that mixed teams are now tourney legal?
They always could be mixed. It depends on the type of tourney you enter weither the sets can be mixed. If it is a Marvel only tourney, then no, you cannot run a mixed team. Many venues have mixed tourneys.
I think the only restrictions placed by WK is that Marquee events have to be the universe the the Marquee is for.....I think......

But in those instances, Enhancement could increase the Damage Dealt to the point where a successfully-hit target would take damage, where it may not have before. The wording is correct, and quite clear.
This clarification was made because some people thought that when using a multiple-target Energy Explosion with Enhancement, it meant you increased the damage of each "splash" with Enhancement, so if a character got hit with two "spashes" (Ulton sprays 3 adjacent characters with Energy Explosion) then the character in the middle would take 1 from EE, 1 from the Enhanced attack, 1 from the left splash, 1 for that splash's Enhancement, 1 for the right splash, and 1 for that splash's Enhancement, for a total of 6 damage, when in reality the figure would only take 1 from the EE, 1 from each splash, and 1 from Enhancement. This clarifies that.

Due to legal restrictions WK can't themselves "combine" the Universes, and none of the tournaments scheduled on the WK website can indicate otherwise. However, Judges can use house rules, so that is where the "combination" can come in. So check event descriptions like "... all tournament legal heroclix figures allowed" for indications if mixing is going on. Or ask/email the Judge.
In nonTournament... well, you can do whatever you and your opponent(s) agree to...

I'm fairly certain that I know what it was intended to say, but that does not make the FAQ answer clear. The EE clarification regarding enhancement (found under the EE) FAQ makes total sense, and wsa clear.
I will apologize, as my examples were not clear:
The 0 damage value and, damage reducing power examples were meant to illustrate situations (not necessarily enhancement situations) where an attack roll for a potentially damaging attack could be successful and not deal damage. Paramedic can make a successful attack roll on a standard close combat attack and not deal any damage.
The use of Ultron as an example figure was to show a figure with three targets that can actually make use of all of them in a normal, damaging, multi-target attack. Yes, most people use those attacks with EE, but that wasn't the point.
My point is this. The FAQ says "for each succsessfully hit" not "to each damaged target."
Ultron, adjacent to a friendly psylocke, Targets Mary Jane, Jarvis and Thor. The attack roll is high enough to hit all three. Now I've successfully hit 3 targets. FOR each of those SUCCESSFULLY HIT people, add in the enhancement In this case, 3 times. Not wanting to waste damage, one would assign 1 damage each to the two tokens, and then have 4 more to give to Thor, who would take 2 after invulnerability.
Had it said "Add one damage to the damage dealt to each target in a multi target attack" (or something along that line), it would make sense as it is supposed to, and MJ and Jarvis would each take 2 and Thor would take none after invulnerability.
The FAQ adds ambiguity to this situation. It isn't clear. It does not read "just like it says."
