Can a Mind Control victim use Mind Control?

[Thunderbolts]

Example: Enchantress mind controls Professor X, then uses him to Mind Control OWAW Supes who is on Xavier's side. Which means that Enchantress doesn't take 2 damage for MCing Supes, but you still get to control him, and Xavier takes 2 damage as an extra.

Is that legal?

Yup. And that's why a mind control team can be turned against you. I've seen it happen. Xavier MC'ed Grodd, who MC'ed the Mad Hatter, who MC'ed The Key, who MC'ed a medic to attack the Mad Hatter. Fun stuff.

If the Medic was attacking the same Mad Hatter who had just been MCed, however, it wouldn't work. Until the end of Mad Hatter's action he is considered friendly to the MCer, and until the end of the Medic's action he too is friendly to you. The Medic can attack any of your opponent's figures are not currently MCed, but he cannot attack any figure which is considered friendly to him.

All this mind controlling makes my head hurt...

Heh, i made a funny.

I had fun with this last night. Grodd was adjacent to my Darkseid with a dumpster. We were all adjacent to his Doomsday. What fun. MC Grodd, Outwit Doomsday's Impervious and then have Grodd pound him for 5. Oh yeah, you ####ed dirty ape, take a click for pushing too. I love me some Darkseid.

Perfectly legal, and very strategic usually. I like to call that move the "brain chain".

Yes, and that's how I did what I call "The most evil thing I've ever done":

On my team, the relevant people were R Doom, V Dr. Octopus, Moondragon.

On his team (let's make up a name for the guy this happened to; we'll call him "JayThor" for purposes of this discussion) the relevant people were Moondragon, E Thor, V Sandman.

Everybody involved already had an action token on them. I use one perplexer to raise my Moondragon's attack by one, I use the other to raise JayThor's Moondragon's attack by one.

Mindcontrol Moondragon with Moondragon. Successful - Super Senses fails - I push, take click.

I use his Moondragon to MC Thor - Moondragon pushes, and MC's a guy over 100 points, so she takes two damage.

Thor hits Sandman. Thor pushes, takes click of damage.

Sandman takes four damage.

Moondragon's a lot of fun, but she's risky - precisely for that reason.
