Rules Q&A
- Q: Hi have a question.
I have found some similary topics but i need example for my region:)
I have a card of region in play in prowince A. The region is Blighted Region http://imperialassembly.com/oracle/#cardid=1042,#hashid=7f8731c96e66b44b7f3b28cd19db1a1d,#cnidprinting=1
Can I use Blighted Region battle action only on the prowince battelfield which is ateched to it or on any of my prowinces batelfields? And what about if I have know Units at the batelfield?
A -If enemy is ataking my prowince B and I have no units on this battelfield can I use the regions Battle action even if the region is atached to my prowince A? B- If enemy is ataking my prowince B and I have units on this battelfield can I use the regions Battle action even if the region is atached to my prowince A?
Thx for anwser Tom
A: Battle actions are subject to the rules of Presence and Location.
The Rule of Presence Battle actions can only be taken by a player who controls a unit at the current battlefield. EXCEPTION: A player who controls no units at the current battlefield may take a Battle Action whose costs or effects say they are able to move, create, or bring into play one or more of his units there.
Blighted Region's action will satisfy Presence even if you control no units at the current battlefield because it effects will move one of your units there.
The Rule of Location This rule has two parts: 1. A card in a unit must be at the current battlefield to be targeted by, or explicitly perform, a Battle action. 2. If a Battle action is on a card in a unit (a Personality or attachment in play), the unit must be at the current battlefield in order to take that action. EXCEPTION: As with the Rule of Presence, a Battle action can target, be performed by, or be taken by a card in a unit at another location if its costs or effects say they are able to move, or otherwise relocate, that unit to the current battlefield. The player who is taking the action must take choices within the action, if possible, such that they do move that unit there.
Blighted Region's action will satisfy part 1 because it effects will move the performing Personality there; part 2 doesn't apply because a Region isn't a card in a unit.
