Rules Q&A
- Q: Hi,
Let's say in this battle I have Sneak Attack, Deathly Aura and Strike from the Shadows in my hand. Can I play them all and grant me 3 first actions before my opponent does?
Strike from the Shadows Reaction: After engaging, if you are the Attacker, target your Ninja Personality at the current battlefield: You have the first opportunity to take a Battle action in this battle, which must be performed by a Ninja. You may discard any cards in the current battlefield's province; if this discarded a Personality, draw a card.
Deathly Aura Reaction: After engaging, if you are the Attacker, choose your performing Samurai: You have the first chance to take a Battle action in this battle, which must be performed by that Samurai.
Sneak Attack Reaction: After engaging: The Attacker has the first opportunity to take a Battle action or pass during this battle. Play then proceeds in turn order from him.
Thanks!
A: Note that unless the Samurai who performs Deathly Aura is also a Ninja, you'll be unable to satisfy both conditions, so you'll have to pass at that first opportunity to take a Battle action in this battle. Alex Jones, "Multiple "Sneaks"", 9 Jul 2010
