STILL GOT THOSE PHOTOGRAPHIC REFLEXES: Give Taskmaster a free action. Choose any standard power an opposing character within 8 squares and line of fire and with one or more action tokens can use. Taskmaster can use that power until the end of this turn.
So, can he copy a standard power that is in a special power? How about can he copy willpower from an opponents indom?
He shouldn't be able to copy any part of any special power technically. But, it has been ruled that he can copy powers named in special powers but cannot use any other part of the special power.

Both of those would be alright. Just remember that if a character has a special stipulation, such as Namor occupying water terrain, then you would only be able to choose a standard power when Namor is in Water Terrain. Task Master would also not be limited once choosen. If Namor leave the terrain, Task Master can still use the power till the end of the turn.

Using a free action does not consume one of your available actions for the turn, and you may give your characters as many free actions as game effects allow. A character may not activate the same game effect twice in one turn with free actions, unless the game effect indicates otherwise.

(Being unsure about how "game effects" are defined) Does this mean I can only use Photographic reflexes only once per turn?
SUPER-VILLAIN TRAINING: Taskmaster can use Enhancement and Leadership. When he succeeds on an roll for Leadership, adjacent friendly characters modify their attack and range values by +1.
Just as long as my Leadership roll succeeds, I can enhance my adjacent friendlies, regardless of their point value right?
With all the posts I've been seeing so far about him being able to copy standard powers even if the target "can use" it as granted by a special power, is it safe to assume that Tasky can also use PR to copy standard powers that a target can use as granted by a resource / relic?
