If the piece using pulse wave has only 1 opposing character in his range does he damage the opponent with full base damage and still get the pulse wave help to go through imp, inv, and toughness?

This is how I interpret the rules and am interested in trying it with Cyborg for his base damage of 3. Thanks for your replies.

You are correct. Also remember that range is still halved.

Here's another question, if this has been answered before sorry for bringing it up again. Can a grounded character with pulse wave use it if adjacent to opposing figs? I always thought since a grounded fig couldn't make a ranged combat action when adjacent to another grounded fig it would'nt work, but I was talking with a friend of mine and he swore it could. Some clarification would be nice.

I think he can IF all adjacent figures are flying ones. If there's even one grounded then you can use PW (ranged combat attack).

Pulse Wave is still a ranged combat action and follows all the rules for such.

DSL meant:

If there's even one grounded then you cannot use PW (ranged combat action).

Thanks HC1234! Thats just what I meant.
