Seems the rules have changed, now the figure getting healed takes the CM damage now, instead of the healer. Thats fine. I can accept that

but if the CM happens while trying to heal a mystic, does the Healer take the Mystic TA recoil damage?

No...Cause it's your own figure.

No because i understand that support is not an attack so the TA don´t do the damage tho your medic.... remenber that this TA only works whe your Fig take damage from an attack.

This isn't new. It has been this way since at least the Indy rules set, maybe even before (I can't honestly recall off the top of my head).

To answer your question, though, the Rules Arbitrator has clarified that the click of damage suffered by the target of Support is not damage dealt. It is still plain old critical miss damage which (as defined by the rule book) is an automatic turning of the dial; it just so happens that a special exception is made in this case as to who takes the critical miss damage. So since it isn't damage dealt by an attack, it can't activate Mystics.

That's got nothing to do with it. If you manage to hit some of your own characters (say with EE) and they happen to have Mystics, you will take the Mystics click because it was a successful attack that dealt damage (all that Mystics requires, it doesn't say anything about friendly vs opposing characters). The only way not to take Mystics damage in this kind of situation is to cancel the TA for the turn.

Support is an attack. To use Support, you give the character a power action that leads into a free close combat attack.

I don't think he's played since Indy...
