Questions on Martian Fighting And Angelica's Teamwork Talent
I played IFOS for the first time the other night and had fun with with it but there were a couple of questions that came up.

First, how does the fighting work for each phase? We played it like this: In the Hero phase, the Hero must roll two fight dice and fight each Martian in the space. The Martians roll a fight dice for each Martian in the space. There were three Martians in the space, so the Hero rolled 2 fight dice, three times (one for each Martian). Each Martian rolled 3 fight dice, one time. The higher roll for each fight won. If the Hero won, the Martian took a wound. If the Martian won, the Hero took a wound.

In the Martian phase of the fight, The Martian pack of three rolled three fight dice, one time while the Hero rolled 2 fight dice, one time. If the Hero rolled higher, one Martian took a wound and the fight ended. If the Martian pack rolled higher, the Hero took a wound and the fight ended. Is this correct?

Secondly, the Hero player wanted to use Angelica's Teamwork ability on Cassidy's Trck Shooting. Can that be done if Angelica doesn't have a gun or does it represent Cassidy shooting to protect Angelica?

RE: Questions on Martian Fighting And Angelica's Teamwork Talent
Fights:
* On the Martian turn, they fire their blasters (which may be in the same space), then fight.
* On Hero turn, any/all heroes present fight the martians.
* Martians fight as a single entity, a PACK, whose strength varies by the number of members in it. Your example above should have been 2 hero fight dice vs 3 martian fight dice ONCE.
* Resolve. (Usually hero takes a wound or martians lose one figure.)
* Check official rules at : http://flyingfrogwiki.com/ffpwiki/index....FOS_Fights (mainly 'who', 'the fight', and 'resolving').

Angelica/Cassidy:
Trick shooting doesn't let you make an attack without a gun. You must have one to use the ability. Cassidy happens to start with a Brace of Pistols. But when/if they go away, she's pretty weakened. Angelica use Trick Shooting if she's in the same space as Cassidy AND has guns.

Also, you can't just pass the gun back and forth, both heroes firing it in one turn. Each card can only be used ONCE per turn [the whole turn, not just a single character's activation]. Cassidy could pass it to Angelica, who can fire it and copy Trick Shooting, if she'd rather do something else. They just can't BOTH shoot, without two guns.
