Hypersonic Speed taxi question

[Rictor]

Can Superman OWAW do this???

Take a friendly figure for a taxi, then make an attack (close or ranged) and then continue taxing???

Someone can help here???

I think it says in the updated FAQ you can't carry someone while using hypersonic speed.

I agree with irweasel.

1) - You can't Taxi and Hypersonic at the same time. Period.
2) - Once you drop the figure, your movement ends. ie - no charge and taxi I think..

[Tsannik]

irweasel and badges are correct...


Basically, the Flying figure cannot carry a friendly figure and use Hypersonic Speed (whether to attack or not) in the same turn.

And... Dropping of a figure is always done at the end of the carrying figure's movement.


Does this help?

[Rictor]

I've checked the recent FAQ and couldn't found something about it, it says something about a charachter doing a charge and Running shot attacks but doesn't say anything about Hyperspeed.

[Tsannik]

I see what you mean....


It's in the DC FAQ under Flying:
· Fliers cannot carry friendly figures with them if the flyer chooses to use Hypersonic Speeds option to both move and attack in the same action.

Ok, I just found the rule, thanks a lot Tsannik :p

Thanks all.

But I could use Hypersonic speed to carry if I am not attacking? In other words can I carry and still "ignore the effects of other characters on movement?"

Yep. Perfectly within the boundries on the rulings.

You can use Hypersonic Speed to ignore the effects of other figures on movement and carrying another figure as long as you do not use that action to attack.

Can you move, carry an item, and Hyper Attack?

Yep. Perfectly within the boundries on the rulings.

You can use Hypersonic Speed to move, pickup an object and then use that object to attack... then use any unused movement to move away.


You are not allowed to move, pickup an object and then try and do the multi-hit option of Hypersonic Speed.

Many Thanks Tsannik.
