BFC: Internal Strife

Gotta take my daughter to the dentist today, so I'll be back online later to post dials and my setup.

Here is my email to speed things along

I cannot do much from work so when I get home tonight I will post my dials and do my setup.

I have to say I do not like this map.

It is good for hypersonic flyers that we do not have.

The BFC is not helping me either.

The BFC is not helping you, but it's not helping me either. May as well be Ordinary Day. I'd rather have that than a one-sided one that only nerfs one team.

Here is my setup. I will most likely want to go first, but I want to check your setup before I make the final decision. Good luck to you.

http://www.ianparmenter.com/hcutils/...7p2=x-346y-434

well #### me. when i upgraded with siphon power i remember asking if it can override saboteur. i just looked in the errata thread and it does not go around saboteur. so i just wasted 20 points for absolutely nothing. fan-####ing-tastic.

i have a question about invigorate it says when you use support. Can you use support on a figure that is full life you can right?

well, I read all of the feats and I would have to agree on siphon power being cancelled by sabetour. It makes sense according to the wordings.

As far as the BFC goes. I am under the impression that if your wildcards change team ability they can only choose x-men and therefor they get a +1 av and my guys get a +1 av to them from the BFC

my wildcards can only use x-men TA (at least as long as pesky frost is still in the game)

however, you don't get the bonus to AV (nor do I get it against you), because the wording of the BFC is that you get a bonus when attacking figs with the same team symbol. the symbol is what is on your base, not what TA you are using. So even though Crossbones can only use X-Men, his symbol is MoD, Jinxes symbol is Calculator, etc.

hence, the BFC for our match may as well have been ordinary day.

hmmm. you know what? i think you may be able to. it hasn't come up yet in any of my games, but i think i recall reading that you can support a fully healed guy.

just to give you a head's up about invigorate, make sure you read the errata about it. the original wording makes it 100% worthless.

where can i find erata??

so does the erata say you can make an attack after the token is cleared?

can you copy and paste it thanks

http://www.ianparmenter.com/hcutils/...4&x1=x-349y185


here is my setup

dang, they havent updated it in the rules thread. i dunno a quick place to find it, but it basically is this:

figures that have a token removed from invigorate cant be given a POWER action in the same turn. if it was a "non-free" action, it would be worthless, cause said figure would just clear at the end of the turn anyway.

so, to give you an example, if crossbones takes a ranged combat action to blast someone, and then ghost widow uses support when she is adjacent to him, she can remove that token that he just got.

however, if jinx phases next to widow and then widow uses support, jinx CANT remove the token, because phasing requires a power action.
