11 Rules that catch players out in Marvel Crisis Protocol

[@RichMidGaming]

Guys - need to pin a new comment here as I have realised a mistake. MODOK should have not gained cover against Luke Cage as he is size 4, and the terrain was size 3. To gain cover you either need to be on top of the terrain, or the terrain needs to be the same size or larger - apologies for the mistake, just ones of those things that you realise afterwards.

This is singularly the best rules clarification video i've ever seen. Clearly worded, concise, excellent demonstrations. It's cleared a lot up about the game, thanks!

[@RichMidGaming]

Glad it was useful!!

[@Sectux]

Glad you included the cover states from rocket and magneto. But also glad you said it was modification, so it won’t work against venom…

[@RichMidGaming]

Not just Venom, but anyone who stop them modifying dice….

[@CaptPickle77]

Awesome video! Our gaming group got into MCP in mid March and have been loving it. Local scene has exploded the past two weeks. I will share this with everyone.

[@RichMidGaming]

That is awesome!

[@WoffBoot]

Thanks for this, really useful. I'm just getting into MCP and your channel is a great resource.

[@carlovasquez7372]

Still learning the game love it so far really helpful video. We were looking up rulings last night while I was trying out inhuman roster. The attack roll sequence really helped clarify things!

[@RichMidGaming]

Glad it helped, it’s definitely one of those things that catches people out

[@shanewalker3427]

Nice succinct video. Well explained. Forgetting cover is so easy.

[@RichMidGaming]

thanks Shane - much appreciated! And yeah...cover!

[@derrelthomas9073]

We were giving rocket double cover for a while until we learned more :) but it's always fun to play regardless!

[@RichMidGaming]

Ha! Buts that’s my point, it lots of game’s you can be in light or heavy cover and it negates a damage no matter what - definitely one that catches most people out!

[@jasonm1514]

Great job. Only nit to pick at is non-interactive terrain cannot be destroyed. 😉

[@RichMidGaming]

Like I said, for the most part it is..

[@Matthewthig]

Thanks for the rules clarifications, it is very helpful for us newer players.

[@lornbongo]

Thanks for this, only had one trial game so this is useful

[@CraigBurgundy]

I feel less bad about forgetting cover now 😀

[@RichMidGaming]

cover is one that gets everyone - even players who have played the game a lot!!

[@deantimson5643]

Yh as a Storm player I always get mad at myself when I do forget it

[@kyleflook7124]

appreciate the video, definitely helped clear some stuff up for this new player!

[@nictay6180]

So a question that I thought of due to your examples in the video, say Luke cage used sweet Christmas on Modok and he gets a wild. I know that things like pierce will still get to take effect against Modok, but would luke cage really not get his throw as its after the attack has been resolved? edit: ok this is a bad example because luke cage can only throw size 3 objects, but the basic principle still stands. If a character can throw a size 4 or greater character after the attack is resolved with a wild, will it affect Modok?

[@RichMidGaming]

The wild would not effect him no. So you wouldn’t be able to trigger any conditions that are dependant on the wilds, as you trigger effects after dice have been modified, and it’s what your left with - it’s what makes MODOK such a threat.

[@ashokohz]

Really helpful, thank you!

[@picklebuckeye]

This is very helpful for a newbie like myself.

[@Clasteau]

New player, checking out this video for sure, TY!

[@yansmac4796]

Great video. First game was earlier this week and pretty sure we got a few things wrong! 🤣

[@RichMidGaming]

You’ll always get things wrong mate, I’m over 200 games in and I still forgot MODOK was size 4 so didn’t actually get cover 🤣😂🤦‍♂️

[@xenobunny]

Great Video for people new to the game- found it's helped a lot :)

[@cpgamespainting4084]

oh my, this game and it's simply complex interactions...

[@RichMidGaming]

I actually think that for the most part, the rules are more simple than a lot of other games out there, it’s just not how we expect them to work (LOS being the biggest one)

[@kimbarroso8124]

Great content !

[@RichMidGaming]

Cheers Kim, much appreciated.

[@RichMidGaming]

Let me know which rules caught you out when you first started playing Marvel Crisis Protocol!

[@davismma125]

I'm still trying get a handle on the a lot of the rules. Got a few games in with the gf but getting a lot of them is still a work in progress like how injuries work and objectives ect. Certain interactions and powers but heard I should download full rules

[@RichMidGaming]

The online rule book is a living rule book that is being added to all the time. If you have TTS, it’s a really easy place to get in more games and increase you knowledge/skill level.

[@davismma125]

@@RichMidGaming thanks I'm.only a few games in but it's so great. I just fell in love with the game and only been week and a half maybe two weeks so need more games in. Had the how many activations and which counts and did not count as being issue first few like super powers not being and attacks being.

[@davismma125]

@@RichMidGaming please keep up a beginning the game for new players rules ect how to ease it, been so fantastic and our local group has 5 new players and it's been spreading

[@michaelryder8551]

Great video. I think the one that gets a lot of people is rerolling rerolls. Being able to keep rerolling dice as long as you have different abilities. Like with spider sense and great responsibility. One that I've seen people play wrong though is triggering plucky attitude on star lord multiple times. Superpowers like that only trigger once. Again great video and really instructive 👍

[@itsMARTIKAI]

Still don't understand how Luke can target Lockjaw who is behind a Truck.

[@williamrehn2608]

I have the same question. Is it a mixture of cover and line of sight, with Lockjaw so close to the truck? If Lockjaw was standing farther away from the truck, does it change anything?

[@WRCannon]

Go

[@Filthyanimal9]

Sorry, at 250 mark you say “we know Luke can draw line of sight...” but this came right after you explained that Luke could NOT draw line of sight because he is a 2 and truck is a 3 and Lockjaw is a 3. Doesn’t give me much faith in the rest of your tips, sadly, as i was really looking for a good intro and tips for beginners

[@RichMidGaming]

Hey Robert, I’d suggest going back and watching it again. I state that Luke DOES have LOS to Lockjaw (as he is size 2 and the truck is size 3) but Lockjaw doesn’t have LOS to Luke as Luke is smaller than the Truck. What I have stated here is correct, but can be misleading as the way LOS works in this game is very different to most out there.

[@davidblyth9507]

Actually he states clearly that Luke CAN see Lockjaw, it is Lockjaw that cannot see Luke. This game allows for asymmetric LOS.

[@mitchcowan1446]

Excellent video!
