Can an Any Hero/Character be used as a follow up to an ally, or does it have to be a teammate specific special?

Jack

Teammate's special. Any Hero/Character specials can never be used to follow up, not even after another Any Hero/Character (say, from the AA).

Nate Grey

What if the Any Character special is one that has been placed on a teammate (e.g. Savage Land)?
Does it now count as a teammate special or does it still hold to the no Any Special rule following an Ally? I think the answer is no but just wanted to make sure.

Jack

Placing doesn't change the fact it's an Any Hero/Character special.

Cool. That's what I figured. Thanks for the quick reply, Jack.

Can a special from under a battlesite be used to follow up an ally card?

Bios

Nope, Specials from BS can only be played through an activator card.

Yes, but can you play an activator following an ally?

no. after an Ally card, the only legal play is a Special card from one of your teammate's own Specials. No Any Heroes, no Battlesite Specials.

altho if a character can play a special from reserve they can

Some of the DC Ally cards say, Team mate "may" play a special, has this been changed to "must" like the Marvel ones?

Jack

All of them. All Ally cards are 'Must'
