Villain Dashboards and Rules

Each villain in this box uses a Villain Dashboard. The Dashboard carries that villain's Special Rules, its Overflow effect, its BAM! effect and its Villainous Plot track. The Masterplan deck and the Threat cards for that villain follow the Dashboard's rules.

Dormammu

Dormammu Dashboard

Special Rules: Dormammu can never be damaged. However, he is defeated after his last Masterplan card is resolved. When 2 Missions are completed, remove the top card of the Masterplan deck from the game. When a Hero is KO'd, Dormammu doesn't activate his BAM! Instead, advance the Ritual Track by the number of Heroes.

BAM!: Deal 2 damage to each Hero in Dormammu's Location.

Overflow: If a Civilian or Thug token can't be added to a Location, increase the Ritual Track by 1 for each token you couldn't add.

Villainous Plot - Ritual Track: When this track reaches 20, Heroes lose. The track runs from 0 to 20.

Dormammu Threat Cards

The Dormammu Threat deck has six cards: two Elemental Control, two Banishment and two Dark Dimension.

• Elemental Control (2 cards): Heroes that take damage in this Location take 1 extra damage.
• Banishment (2 cards): Each Civilian in this Location requires 1 extra Heroic Action token to be rescued.
• Dark Dimension (2 cards): Each Thug in this Location requires 2 damage to be defeated.

Dormammu Masterplan Deck

The Masterplan cards are listed in the order they appear in the source sheet. Each card gives a Move value (the number of Locations the Villain moves clockwise), a BAM! icon where printed, and the Civilian and Thug tokens placed at the Villain's Location and the two Locations beside it. The orange arrow on the placement diagram marks the Villain's Location.

1. Move 3. Ritual card. Place 1 Civilian in each of the three Locations (left, Villain's, right). Ritual: Increase the Ritual Track by the number of Civilians and Thugs in Dormammu's Location.
2. Move 3. Ritual card. Place 1 Civilian in each of the three Locations. Ritual: Increase the Ritual Track by the number of Civilians and Thugs in Dormammu's Location.
