This attack acts as a level # of a designated Power type. It also has the option of adding a Power card (of one or more power types), usable by the Character (or a teammate of the Character, as specified by the Special) using the Specials, to the level # for one combined attack. The skill type(s) to combine are limited to those listed on the Special. If the special requires an Energy card, it must be an Energy power card. This attack would not be considered a single attack with an attack value of equal to the sum of the two cards. For example a level 4 Fighting Special combined with a level 4 Energy Power card would be a level 8 attack consisting of both Fighting and Energy.

Meta Rules

Meta #11 If a Special indicates a specific type of "card" (such as "Fighting card") then the only card which can be used with this is a "pure" Power card (such as a Fighting Power card). MultiPower and Any-Power Power cards cannot be used.

Meta #15 If part of an attack is defended, then the entire attack that targeted the Character is avoided. If the attack is made in conjunction with a Special which modifies the Character making the attack, then avoiding the attack (in any way) prevents the attacking Character's modification from occurring.

Meta #20 If 2 cards are combined for a single attack, then their values are added together to determine the total attack value that needs to be defended.

Meta #21 If a Special calls for another card to be played with or after it, then the card must be playable by the Character who contributes the card - even if the Special indicates otherwise.

Meta #31 When a Special refers to a teammate, it means another Character on your team (unless the text of the Special indicates otherwise) that is not the Character who played the Special. If the Special is referring to all of the Character's teammates, then it does include the Reserve Character. If it is referring to what can be done with a specific teammate, then it applies only to the Front Line Characters. It never means the Battlesite or the Home Base.

Meta #92 If 2 cards are combined when used in an attack, then once it hits, the 2 cards are separate and distinct hits on the Character's record. Removing or negating one would have no effect on the other.

Meta #97 If a Special that indicates it should be "played with" another card is negated, both the Special and the card it was played with are discarded. If a negate is played against a Special indicating that a card should be discarded or exchanged, then the negation takes place prior to the discarding.

Meta #135 No matter what a Special says (or neglects to say) an Any-Power icon does not count towards spectrum (unless a second Special comes along and changes it). In addition, Any-Power attacks do not need to be declared as MultiPower attacks do.
