MSNP 015 Trick Arrows

MSNP 015 Trick Arrow
When building your force, you may equip this equipment to a character with a Qualifying Name or Keyword without paying this equipment's cost.

When unequipped, place this object in the previously equipped character's square.

A character that's equipped by this object can use its EFFECT.

A force may only contain one Trick Arrow equipment. Once per game when this is equipped, place up to three Trick Arrow cards face down (you may look at them). // When this character hits, you may flip over a face down Trick Arrow card and perform its ON REVEAL effect.


When placing the 3 trick arrow cards face down, can I choose the same card more than once?


A friendly character equips the Trick Arrow equipment, and places 3 Trick Arrow cards face down. This character is then KO'd before they can flip all of these Trick Arrow cards and the Trick Arrow equipment is dropped on the map. In this situation:

(A) If another friendly character equips this Trick Arrow equipment, can they use my remaining face down Trick Arrow cards?

(B) If an opposing character equips this Trick Arrow equipment, can they use my remaining face down Trick Arrow cards?

(C) If an opposing player already has a character equipped with their own Trick Arrow equipment and then has another opposing character equip the Trick Arrow equipment that was dropped by my KO'd character, can the newly equipped opposing character use the Trick Arrow cards placed face down by that opposing player from their original Trick Arrow equipment?

Mind Control (Light Blue)
CLOSE/RANGE: Minimum range 4. Make a close/range attack. Instead of normal damage, each hit character halves speed and becomes friendly to your force and, one at a time, may in either order: Move and/or make an attack, then it reverts forces


Will a character that mind controlled an opponent (equipped with Trick Arrows) be able to use Trick Arrows in the Mind Controlled character's attack?

If so, Will the player mind controlling be able to look at the opponents Trick Arrows?

015e Trick Arrow (USB)
EFFECT: ON REVEAL: Instead of normal damage, destroy an equipment equipped to each hit character.


If I activate an effect like Mind Control or Pulse Wave that doesn't deal normal damage would I be able to flip a Trick Arrow card that also doesn't deal normal damage like the USB and also use its effect?

A force may only contain one Trick Arrow equipment. Once per game when this is equipped, place up to three Trick Arrow cards face down (you may look at them). // When this character hits, you may flip over a face down Trick Arrow card and perform its ON REVEAL effect.


Could I equip my force with two Trick Arrow equipment if each was from a different set?

A. Yes.
B. Yes.
C. No. You may only use the Trick Arrow cards assigned to the specific Trick Arrow equipment when that equipment was equipped.

Will a character that mind controlled an opponent (equipped with Trick Arrows) be able to use Trick Arrows in the Mind Controlled character's attack? If so, Will the player mind controlling be able to look at the opponents Trick Arrows?

Yes and Yes.

If I activate an effect like Mind Control or Pulse Wave that doesn't deal normal damage would I be able to flip a Trick Arrow card that also doesn't deal normal damage like the USB and also use its effect?

No. Since you are activating a non-optional "instead of normal damage" effect by giving that action, you may not use a Trick Arrow card that has an "instead of normal damage" effect.

Could I equip my force with two Trick Arrow equipment if each was from a different set?

No.

015d Trick Arrow (Electrical) has the following On Reveal:

Choose a hit character. Instead of normal damage, deal 2 penetrating damage to the chosen character and up to one other opposing character within 2 squares of the chosen character.


"MYSTICS - Each time this character takes damage from an opposing character's attack, after resolutions deal the attacker 1 penetrating damage. Uncopyable."

If I hit a character with the attack and perform this On Reveal, and choose a character within 2 squares of the hit character that can use Mystics (that was not hit by the attack), will Mystics trigger?

Hello, I have a question about trick arrows.

When choosing the 3 cards face down, can I select cards from different sets?

Example: T. Arrow (TOO DANGEROUS) and T. Arrow (ELECTRICAL) from the MSNP set together with T. Arrow (HYPNOTIC) from the MoT set.
