Secret Wars Card Clarifications (4.14.2023)

Postby dmrulesteam » Fri Apr 14, 2023 1:55 pm

As has been done with previous sets, we are issuing clarifications to the cards from the Secret Wars set under one entry. Abilities with no asterisk next to their number have underlined words added appropriately to the published card text for completeness and to eliminate any confusion as to the ability’s intent.

Abilities with an asterisk have clarifications for specific application questions.

(1) Agent Brand: Hel-Rangers (U)
While Agent Brand is active, your character dice gain Fast.

(2*) Beast: Mind Gem (R)
While Beast is active, when you spend a [Mask] to field a character die, deal up to 2 damage to target character die.
Q: How is the damage calculated?
A: The damage is inflicted for each mask that is spent. For example, you spend 2 mask energy to field one Character die, up to 4 damage is dealt. Also, you can split the damage into groups of “up to 2” amongst multiple targets as applicable. So, if you spent 3 masks to field a Character die, you could deal 2 damage to one target, 1 damage to another target, and 0 damage to a third target.

A: Yes, you would only prep 1 die regardless of the number of dice KO'd by Groot’s ability.

(12) Invisible Woman: Regent of the Uhari Throne (R)
While Invisible Woman is active, your [Fantastic Four] character dice and [Sidekick Character dice] get +1 attack and +1 defense.

(13*) Kang: Prophetic Revelation (C)

Global: Pay [3 energy]. Roll a character die from your Used Pile, field it if it shows a character face. Can only be used if one of your character dice was spun to an energy face or rerolled this turn.
Q: How does this global ability apply with Sidekick dice?
A: Sidekick dice cannot be rolled from the Used Pile, since they are not Character dice in an unrolled dice play area. This ability can be initiated if a Sidekick Character die in the Reserve Pool or Field Zone was spun to an energy face or rerolled, since abilities that apply to Character dice also apply to Sidekick Character dice in rolled dice play areas.
