Rules Q&A
- Q: Ok that's what I thought, So skeletal troops has an updated definition vs. Zombie troops still had just: fear 3. So I wanted to clarify that basic fear effects were all updated They used to be all followers with lower force back in the day so that's much better And by updated: I mean the newer print of zombie troops has a definition written on it that includes personalities
A: Oh, right, it did. That's an overall Rules change. The paranthetical and italicized text on Skeletal Troops isn't an "update" to the card itself, it's reminder text for how the Rules work. Brook Cunningham, "Oracle of the Void #rules", 13 Jun 2021
