Agent Cards usually are the main asset of a player.

All Agent Cards have a name, a rank and starting attributes.

They can also receive Upgrades and Conditions, and may be granted additional Traits and Abilities.

Presentation

The following picture displays how to identify an agent card attributes and powers.

Paper clips are fun to work with.

Agent Attributes

All Agent Cards automatically receive the following attributes:

• A Card Name
• A Card Rank
• One point of Card Toughness?
• One Expertise?: this can be Investigation?, Tactical?, Research? or Combat?.
• One Faction Trait?: this can be the robot faction?, the alien and mutants faction?, or any human faction?.

Additionally, Agent Cards may receive additional attributes:

• Additional Card Toughness
• Additional Traits?
• Some Special Abilities?
• Some Investigation? capacity
• Some Tactical? capacity
• Some Research? capacity
• Some Combat? capacity

And all Agent Cards may receive temporary benefits, such as:

• Equipped Upgrades?
• Temporary Conditions?
• Temporary bonuses, Traits and Special Abilities

Any Agent Card may be chosen as your Director during your Deck Building.

While he/she occupies that position, your Agent will automatically receive the 'Director' Trait, and may also benefit from specific Abilities which have that requirement.

How to receive Agents

Agent Cards are commonly received as rewards in boosters and chests.

How to put Agents in play

Agent Cards must be put inside your Playing Deck during your Deck Building, and must obey to Deck Building rules.

Once in your deck, an Agent may be drawn and purchased as an Opportunity.

Recruited agents become part of your Playing Hand.

Cards from your Playing Hand may be put into play at any time during your turn.

How to use your Agents

Once in play, Agent Cards may activate their Abilities and Resource Capacities during your turn and be also targeted by other cards and players.

Note that putting an Agent in play from your Playing Hand may already activate some of his Abilities, depending on their requirements.

• Agent Capacities can be used to pay for Challenge Costs.
• Agent Capacities can be used to pay for Special Ability Costs.
• Agent Capacities can be used to pay for Upgrade Equipment Costs, but only if that Upgrade targets their own card.
• Agent Capacities cannot be used to purchase Opportunities. Only Director Capacities can be used to purchase Opportunities.
• Agent Capacities are not replenished during the Assets phase. They are a finite resource.
