Okay, looking over the forums I think this has already been answer, but I want to be sure. If I'm using a team that's mostly wildcards, and I have one avengers team member use Thunderbolts to get... lets say Morlocs, when my wild cards copy, are they allowed to copy Morlocs, or just Avengers since they still technically have that team symbol? I would think it would be Morlocs, but what I think something should be hasn't always been the case.

Thanks for any answers :)

Wildcards cannot use team abilities granted through feat cards. When copying a team ability, unless specified otherwise, they use the team ability from the Powers and Abilities card.

Wildcards would copy the PAC Avengers ability, not the T-bolted Morlocks. It used to work the way you would like, but this changed in the FF rules.

The only thing the WCs can copy is the original Avengers. This is clarified in the player's guide.

K, that's why I ask, scrapping that idea and moving to the next.

For what it's worth, the cheapest Morlocks TA character is 16 points.

Unless Morlocks was just an example, that is. Then, carry on.

Yah, we're doing a tournament with house rules: no figure on your team can share a keyword. So I'm putting together a wildcard team, think I have at least one piece with Morlocs, trying to find it. So far I've got cheap Mystics, Hypertime, Batman Ally, and Skrull. I thought a Morloc would be a nice addition, but don't want to spread it out too much. Morloc isn't one many people seem to know so it'd be a surprise.
