Rules Q&A
- Q: Can you play No Way Out during a battle not associated with a province, for example from a battle created by Aramasu's Legacy stronghold or Ambush or Shinobi Assault? If so will the targets be destroyed the same?
A: You can certainly play No Way Out. However, its effect will always fail, since it needs a Province in order to check if it was destroyed.
Precedent. Jon Palmer, "No Way Out not at a province", 2 Jul 2013 - Q: Are other battlefields created by this card at provinces? I want to Brave New World into them.
A: No.
Battlefields are created by card effects (such as Shinobi Assault's effects) or by the Create Battlefields step of the Declaration segment of the Attack Phase. Alex Jones, "Shinobi Assault and other battlefields", 4 Sep 2012
