“EachHeroYouPlayedThisTurn”
This phrase only counts cards you have
already played this turn, and not other
cards still in your hand.
• Forexample,sayyouplayIronMan’s
“Arc Reactor” card. You’ll get extra
Attack for any other
(Tech Hero)
cards you played before Arc Reactor,
but not for any other
cards still in
your hand.
“RevealanX-MenHeroorGain
a Wound.”
“Reveal a card” just means show the
other players that you have it. You don’t
play or discard the card you revealed.
When you have the opportunity to “reveal
a card”, you can reveal a card from your
hand or you can reveal a card in front of
you that you have already played this turn.
•
For example, say you play a Wolverine
card and a Deadpool card to make 5 Attack,
and you still have four S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents
in your hand. Then you fight the Villain
Sabretooth. For Sabretooth’s “Fight”
effect, you can reveal the Wolverine
(X-Men) card you already played this
turn so that you don’t have to take a
Wound. You could also just choose to gain
the Wound if you really wanted, for
example if you had lots of cards in your
deck that benefited from Wounds.
“Villaingets-2Power”
Some cards reduce Villains’
Power. A Villain’s Power can
never go below 0.
MastermindsDon’t
Count as “Villains”
Masterminds are so
powerful that they are far beyond regular
Super Villains. As a result, Masterminds
don’t count as mere “Villains”, and special
abilities that only affect Villains won’t
affect Masterminds. For example, the
Scheme “Bank Robbery Hostage Crisis”
says “Each Villain gets
+1
for each Bystander it has.
Masterminds don’t get this bonus.
“SecretInvasionoftheSkrull
Shapeshifters”
Note: Heroes carried away under escaping
Villains like Skrull Queen Veranke and
Skrull Shapeshifters do count towards
evil winning.

well as high-flying super heroes.
