A friend of mine and I were discussing the use of The Thing's SP "Yer Ever-Loving' Pal"
YER EVER-LOVIN' PAL: At the beginning of your turn, if the Thing is adjacent to one or more friendly characters that have one or more action tokens, roll a d6. On a result of 5 or 6, you can remove an action token from one friendly character, or two friendly characters if they and the Thing all posses a single common keyword.
He argued that the power itself didn't say to take off action tokens from the friendly characters adjacent to The Thing, only that action tokens can be removed from friendly characters. So, by this reasoning, as long as The Thing is adjacent to friendly characters that have one or more action tokens, and a 5 or 6 is rolled, action tokens can be removed from any friendly character, or two friendly characters if they and The Thing all posss a single common keyword. I think it is only those adjacent to him.
Has there been a ruling? Or has anyone else encountered this argument?
Thoughts?
