In more detail, “D.A.G.G.E.R.” stands for “Defense Alliance for Globaland Galactic Emergency Response”, and the “Alliance” and “EmergencyResponse” elements drive how the game is played, with heroes needing tostrengthen themselves via combos in time to take on the nemesis.

There are two types of combo tokens: empowered tokens and primed tokens. Whena hero becomes “empowered”, they can later discard their empowered token toadd one success to any attribute test they perform. When an enemy is“primed”, a hero attacking that enemy can remove a primed token from them toadd one success to the attack result, which means more damage dealt.

What's more, each hero has at least one “combo ability” that requireseither an empowered token on themselves or a primed token on an enemy totrigger. Triggering these combo abilities comes with an extra benefit: advancingthe team-up track, a resource shared by all heroes that's used to pay for“team-up abilities”, the strongest abilities in each hero's arsenal.
