Rules Q&A
- Q: If I use Rout to send home a unit that has Snow Riders Equipped, be my opponent use their Reaction to negate the movement before Rout destroys the follower?
Rout: Battle: Move a target unit home. Destroy one of its attachments (if any).
Snow Riders: Reaction: Before an action's resolution begins: Negate this Personality's movement from the action's effects.
Thank You!!!
A: Yes. Snow Rider's Reaction triggers before any of Rout's effects occur. Rout's effect still can destroy the Snow Riders, however. Dan Jacobson, "Rout vs. Snow Riders", 17 Jul 2009
