Rules Q&A
- Q: Questions that came up in multiplayer last night...
1) On Naval Invasion in Multiplayer:
I've allied with Players A and B to attack Player C, and Player D has allied with C. In my Army I have sent Yoritomo Kitao xp0 and Moshi Kalani. Immediately after all armies have been declared I am able to declare a Naval Invasion right?
A: Not immediately after all units are assigned to armies, no. Declaring battles Naval happens on a battle-for-battle basis, as each one is selected by the Attacker for resolution. Jeff Alexander, "post for 7 June 2002", 8 Jun 2002 - Q: 1.) Will there be an errataed version of non-XP Yoritomo Kitao in the Mantis starter for Dark Allies, IE, one with the Naval trait printed?
A: If she is reprinted, we will strive, as with any reprint, to incorporate all existing errata and clarifying rulings into the card text. Jeff Alexander, "post for 11 January 2002", 12 Jan 2002
