I am always thinking, can I overload the a team attacker? What do you think? Another thing is that if you KO an on-going plot twist at the left side(which is you summon it from your hand) and your opponent gets to place the top card of his deck into the resource row. Does this mean that my opponent gets 1 more resource point to use than me?
 
Yes, you can overload a team attacker, you can overload any character that has an attack greater than twice it's original attack.

No, they don't get an extra resource. Ongoing effects of plot twists played from the hand never activate, they are only present when the plot twist is in the resource row. So let's say they play Brave and the Bold from their hand to draw a card, but you think you can Foiled it to replace it. The Ongoing Plot twist isn't in the resource row (nor is it really in the in play area), and it's ongoing effect isn't presant, put quite simply, there is no way an ongoing plot twist played from the hand can be replaced to give that person an extra resource.
 
Another question would be if you KO a resource. Will you lose your resource point too? And if I am not wrong, you need resource point to summon an use equipments.
 
Resource Points are only generated at the beginning of the Recruit Step. If you KO a resource before this, you will not get a Resource Point for that Resource. If you KO it during the Recruit Step (which is a common tactic with New Brotherhood using Genosha), you will still have the Resource Point to spend.
 
So if you KO the resource, you will lose the resource point which is used to summon creatures and use equipment card for the rest of my game.
 
Ok. I think my point is not clear. Explain the meaning of resource point for me. Correct me if I am wrong, it's use to summon creatures and use equip cards. They are generated after your draw step before your recruit step.


Another thing is cards with effect such as KO a resource. I will quote an example and then ask my Question.

Darkoth: KO a resource you control, increase Darkoth gets +7 atk the attack.

If I KO this resource during the 3rd turn, regardless face-up or face-down. I will not be able to generate 4 resource points and then I will not be able to summon a 4 drop creature on my 4th turn, or I will not be able to summon a creature or equip equipment cards with a combine "threshold" of 4. Am I right to say that? Another way of saying would be I would miss a drop "all the time".
 
Resource Points are generated at the start of the recruit step, not before. You lose all resource points when you leave the Recruit Step.

For the Darkoth example, if you use Darkoth's effect when you have 3 Resources, after using the effect, you will have 2 resources. During the next turn, during your Resource Step, you will put down a resource. At the start of the Recruit Step, the game will see you have 3 resources and will give you 3 Resource Points. You may recruit any amount of characters/equipment up to a total of 3 Resource Points. For Plot Twists and Locations, you may not play them if they have a threshold of 4 or higher.

KOing a resource in this game is generally a big deal if it is not mutual. You will essentially be a turn back compared to your opponent, so you need to consider if it is really worth it to do so at that moment.
