Can a character (e.g., ASP-7) with Heavy Weapon move and use Lift in the same turn?

Yes
From the FAQ
Heavy Weapon
Q: Characters with Heavy Weapon can't attack and move in the same turn. How does this work with ASP-7's Lift ability? Lift "replaces attacks," so can ASP-7 move another character with Lift and also move that turn? Can it use Industrial Repair on another character and still move that turn?
A: Yes. Abilities that replace attacks don't count as attacks themselves. So ASP-7 can use its Lift ability and also move, or use Industrial Repair and move. Heavy Weapon only prevents it from attacking and moving on the same turn. A character with Heavy Weapon can still make an attack of opportunity as normal, and it can move in the same turn that it uses a replaces attacks ability.

That is...weird. Bizarre, even.
Then why does it have Heavy Weapon in the first place??

I'm confused on how Lift works period; does it allow you to carry a character for the duration of the movement, or just from one adjacent square to another? I assume the latter, but could be mistaken.

He can still attack (though doubtful you are playing for that,) and it is a negative ability so it probably lowered his cost a bit. pegolego wrote:I'm confused on how Lift works period; does it allow you to carry a character for the duration of the movement, or just from one adjacent square to another?
