Duration Instant

When this Special is played, the Character playing the Special:

  1. Removes all hits from their Permanent Record and Hits from Current Battle.
  2. The Character playing the Special moves into Reserve, with all of the restrictions of being in Reserve applying to him or her.
  3. The Reserve Character is brought to the Front Line and is able to participate in the battle from that point forward.

This Special may be played even if there is no Reserve Character. All placed cards stay with the Character they were originally placed on. If this Special is placed or in hand, then Specials for the Reserve Character do not need to be placed or discarded during the Discard and Placing Phases of the battle. If the Character playing this Special is the last Character that player has left, that Player would automatically lose that Venture, regardless of what the Venture total score ends up.

Exceptions/Errata

Blue Beetle's Frictionless Foam should be coded IB.

Meta Rules

Meta #30 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", then the second aspect of the Special does not necessarily need to occur. It may not be possible to perform the secondary action. The secondary action may be specified as optional. However, if it is required and possible to perform the second action, it must be done.

Meta #131 If, by playing a Special card, a player removes their own last front line Character from play (e.g., by moving them into reserve) then the battle is immediately over and that player loses the Venture.
