If we remove it then it's only triggered if the figure attacked, not if they used a special power. If people are all on favor of removing that part of it, sure.

To put it another way: the current wording allows her to move but not attack when a special power is used and does not wound. If we want to lose that, then yes, get rid of the blue phrase. I personally like her to be able to move without attacking, so she can keep up.

[Arkham]

We can always fix the wording to include the ability to attack if they used a special power that didn't cause a wound etc. If we don't want special powers included, then yeah, it's just a simple matter of removing that part out.

I'll call for a vote for Initials tomorrow, so if anyone has a strong preference one way or the other, speak now. Personally, she'll be able to be paired well with any figure that can attack, so I don't see the dropping of special power as a big loss, but I don't think it makes a big difference either way other than some combos being a little bit better such as negotiation etc.

I'd probably push for removing the special power bit preemptively, just to keep things clear, but I'll leave that to LD discretion. Otherwise I agree we're good for the initial.

After using this special power, you may not take a turn with any other figures.

I have no concerns about this version. FWIW, Star-Lord's distracting fire special attack feels like a nice fit here (as it often fails to inflict wounds, but can help Nebula get into place to follow it up with a big hit).

[Arkham]

I think it'll better encourage her to be in primarily Guardians builds, but still leaves the door wide open to tag her along with any army, so I see no real harm in dropping it. Updated the SP with all the changes.

Any things you feel should be tested specifically? I'd imagine there's many equally decent options given the dropping of special powers.

I propose a vote to move to Initial Playtesting.
