Standoff (FD - THE MARVELS)

[gameplan.exe]

Sounds solid.  The thing is, when you FD a character in reserve, if the other characters "act as if ko'd for remainder of turn" wouldn't that be the same as saying "temporarily move reserve character into the front line until battle is concluded" since the rest of the team is quietly sitting it out?

my only thing is that, even when it's down to a one on one fight, some one can still get sent to the Reserve, which ends the battle. But again, what kind of fun would that be?

Really enjoyed reading the arguments for both sides. We like using Cosmic Cube so this topic is very relevant to me. So, if I read correctly, the consensus is that in play EB cards can be used as a defense, and that Standoff/Cosmic Cube can target the opponent's reserve character.

No, FD cards cannot target the reserve. It can only target the front line unless the character playing FD can specifically target the reserve. Even with Hellfire Club Attacks, you still cannot target  the reserve, the victim of the FD can choose to move the attack to the reserve. If that scenario occurs, the battle continues as if the character playing FD and the final target of the FD were both the only front line characters for the battle.

Alright. I finally got it now. Thanks Jack!
