This Special gives a front-line teammate a +4 Bonus to a specified power type(s) attack. The Character gaining the bonus may use a Special or may use a regular Power card as long as it meets the specified power type(s). However, the Power card may not be used in conjunction with a Universe card. This Special may be used in conjunction with a Multipower card or a Multipower Special, but the multipower attack much then be one of the specified types. The bonus does not count towards Damage or Venture Total.
Meta Rules
Meta #10 If a Special indicates a specific type of "attack" (such as "Fighting attack") then any attack can be made by the Character provided it falls into the legal types of attacks that can be made by the Character and that the attack is made as the specific type.
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 #34 Bonuses/penalties granted by Special cards are never counted towards damage or Venture Total unless specifically stated otherwise on the Special.
Meta #35 Specials which grant bonuses/abilities to the playing Character (or the playing Character's team) that can be played offensively can be played along with an attack. The attack may not be made with a Universe card of any kind (although the Special and attack may be made as a follow-up to an Ally attack). In the event that the attack is defended, the bonus/ability would be defended as well and would not take place. The attack may be defended by defendeding the numeric attack or the Special granting the bonus/ability.
Meta #37 Bonuses granted by Special cards do not affect any Character's power grids, but the value at which one determines the attack value/defense value of an action. The bonus/penalty only affects the value of cards with a number/icon in the upper left hand corner.
Meta #65 Specials which grant a teammate a bonus for one attack must be played with that teammate's attack.
