STARK INDUSTRIES When establishing themed teams, friendly characters with the Scientist keyword gain the Stark Industries keyword. // Friendly characters with the Stark Industries keyword reduce damage by 1 in addition to any other effects that reduce damage.
PULSE WAVE RANGE: Range 4, [IT][CHARACTERS][ADJACENT]. Other characters within range can’t use powers or abilities (for this action). Make a range attack targeting all other characters within range and line of fire, including at least one opposing character, using printed defense values for each targeted character. Each hit character is dealt 1 damage instead of normal damage.
If a character with the Stark Industries keyword is targeted by Pulse Wave, but Tony Stark is outside of the Pulse Wave's range, would that character be able to reduce the Pulse Wave damage by 1?
