Rules Q&A
- Q: Snow Maiden says gains +1F/+1C for each forest in play
What is a forest card? A Jade card I'm told is any card with the word Jade on it. Therefore, if I have:
3x Forest (Hold) 3x Edge of Shimonen Forest (Fort) 3x Bloodstained Forest (Spell)
Are all of my Snowmaidens now 10F/11C? I've been told that the Spell didnt count. But I wanted to confirm.
A: Any card with the word "Forest", "Forests", "Forest's", or "Forests'" in its title or boldface traits area is "a forest card". That arrangement would indeed give Yuku no Onna a +9/+9 bonus. Jeff Alexander, "post for 15 January 2002", 16 Jan 2002
