Healer on Synister Syndicate

[osh11102]

In this new explosion set, I would love to have a clix that had support on the Synister Syndicate team. It would solve all my problems with healing my E ultron. and vet Doom

That begs a question. If a model had Sinister Syndicate (or Minions of Doom or Spidey-friends) for that matter, would it get to take advantage of the adjacent figure's highest attack score in its roll to Heal the friendly Sinister Syndicate figure?

Does Heal get to count as an "attack" in the sense of benefiting from powers that modify attack scores?

IIRC, you can't lower the defense of the healed fig with, say, the Defenders ability, because the attack roll for support ignore all modifiers (description of Support in the PAC). So I guess you can't raise the attack of the healer, too.

I didn't know team abilities counted as modifiers. especially when the shield ability can be used with RCE or is that completely different.

The shield ability is a modifier, but not a super power. The sinister sindicate is a modifier. The support ability says to ignore all modifiers, therefore sinister sindicate cannot be used.

well i guess that would also include using the hydra ability to raise your attack so you can have a better chance at healing right???

Since HYDRA is only used with range attacks and Support is an action used while adjacent, this is a moot question.
