Rules Q&A
- Q: What's the final ruling about Noekam and fearsome strength? Does he gain a force bonus equal to the number of undead cards in the unit, or does he gain no bonus?
A: He gains a Force bonus equal to the number of Undead cards in the unit. Anytime there's a 'number' hidden in some text, and an opposing player could tell you what the number is (i.e., there's no randomness involved), you can reference that number normally.
