Summoning a Carrier
I remember this being discussed on HQ but it crashed before I could go back and read the outcome, if it ever ended. What if Saylind summoned Theracus or Brunak; would they be able to carry someone with them?
If so then you could move lindSay, summon Brunak, while carrying Drake. In essence you could move three heroes at once. What if instead of Saylind it was the glyph of summoning? ---------------edit from Bunjee: adding info from post on page 24------------- Quote:

umm no carry is only used when the carrying unit is activated.

I'm not disagreeing but I would like to know your source. Just quote the card or rulebook for me and I'll be happy. Thank you.

i hae to agree with bobofett on this one. In theory, if i were brunak, and you were saylind, and bobofett was the player. Bobofett places a order marker on Saylind (you). you then summon me (brunak) with me having no warning at all. One minute, i'm standing there, the next i'm not. There would be no chance for the unit-to-be-carried to get on my back. ya know?
but then again, this is Valhalla, so some crazy stuff could happen......like me mindshackling your saylind, then you re-mindshackling your saylind........ |

Look at the cards. By logical order you move Saylind, roll to summon, if successful summon Brunak/Theracus, prior to moving Brunak/Theracus you choose an unengaged friendly Drake, you move Brunak/Theracus to any space adjacent to Saylind, you place Drake adjacent to Brunak/Theracus. I didn't make anything up; I didn't interpret; I simply read the card. As an alternative they could have just as easily changed the wording on Saylind to say "place the chosen figure" but they didn't. If they didn't mean move and all it insinuates then why use the word at all. So do you agree with my argument or do you think that the Hasbro designers are illiterate? And if you don't agree please tell me why. |

I think the answer is in the wording...
It says: "Before moving" and technically when they are summoned they are not "moving" based on the move allowed on their card. Am I making any sense or am I just tired? |

I don't agree with it, but a rules lawyer could argue it. |

well there is moving and then there is moving.
when Brunak takes his turn he moves (if desired) and then attacks. this is the movement i'm thinking about when i read his card. moving him as a result of being summoned is a different kind of moving, imo. he is not moving under his own power. it is not part of the "move phase" of his turn. i know it's splitting hairs, but i think this is what is intended on the SP for Brunak (and Theracus). edit: holy crap. i think 5 of us posted at the exact same time. or i'm just a very slow typer, which is more likely |

You can't expect hasbro to get wording right if they can't get a release date right.
anyway i think what hasbro is saying is that you activate the card and then use its movement spaces that is the only time you can carry. |
