Rules Q&A
- Q: Courage Beyond QUestion
Strength in Subtlety
Does CBQ played as an interupt negate both the +2F and the -2F from SiS?
A: Courage Beyond Question's Interrupt only negates "Force bonuses and penalties from the action": it will not negate a Force penalty from a trait. Alex Jones, "Courage Beyond QUestion and Strength in Subtlety", 30 Mar 2015 - Q: If I use Strength in Subtlety's action at a battlefield, can I resolve it's trait targeting someone not at that battlefield (since it is a trait, and not apparently restricted by location/presence, from what I can find in the CR)?
A: Yes, you may. The Rules of Location only constrain the targets of actions. Jon Palmer, "Strength in Subtlety", 9 Oct 2014
