Question

I have a couple of questions regarding the second scenario in the Mutant Genesis campaign (Project Wideawake) 1. What happens to the scenario allies (Project Wideawake #6-9), if they’re defeated by something other than an enemy attack? The rules on Ownership and Control (RRG v1.4, page 22) imply that they should go to the discard pile of their owner, but they’re scenario cards, so does that mean they go to the encounter deck discard pile? Even though they have player card backs? 2. Similarly, what happens to the Jubilee and Magneto allies if defeated by an enemy? Do keywords have priority over a Forced Response, causing them to go to the victory display? Or will they get tucked under the Operation Zero Tolerance side scheme?

Answer

Once you’ve earned the allies from the scenario, they’re considered a part of your deck. They will go to the discard pile of the player that “owns” them. Jubilee and Magneto would first get placed in the victory display following the “Victory” keyword, but then they would get placed under Operation Zero Tolerance immediately after. They will end up placed beneath Operation Zero Tolerance.
