Re: AotP Question Dump

I'm looking through cards... There is card with such a wording "A creature you control gains lifelink (...)". Does the "creature" mean "army squads AND/OR planeswalker?" Or creature = anything but planeswalker?

Creature meaning non-planeswalker. Since it is singular ("A creature .. ") then it is just one figure. You can pick one figure in a squad to gain the lifelink bonus.

Re: AotP Question Dump

Thanks for answers... And questions about mind control...

1. If an opponent controls my unit, does the unit receive his or my buffs/debuffs? E.g. Gideon has AoE buff enchant. If an opponent controls a unit within the buff area... does it apply? Or maybe both players' buffs apply?

2. Cards refer to "figures an opponent controls" - does that count mind controlled figures? If so, some enchants would grant debuffs to its own squad?

Re: AotP Question Dump

In the parent game, if an opponent's creature was enchanted with an "enchant opponent's creature" aura and was then controlled, even temporarily, in that moment it wouldn't be an opponent and the aura would fall off.

I'll start by saying the cards in AotP are not the best : )

"Mind Control" and effects that steal figures temporarily are not well described.

MIND CONTROL
Sorcery
You may move and attack with target squad creature an opponent controls that is within 4 clear sight spaces of a blue Planeswalker you control.



Jace's power is a good guideline.

MIND STEALER
At the end of Jace's turn, you may choose target Planeswalker within 4 clear sight spaces of Jace. Roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 16 or higher, you control that Planeswalker and you may use abilities, move, and attack with the Planeswalker. Afterward, return control of the Planeswalker.



In Heroscape, when you temporarily take control or steal a figure - it becomes yours and therefore it follows the normal "figures you control" buffs (even if the control is temporary). This includes Leaving Engagement attacks. In AotP - if that figure has an Enchantment on its Army Card - that Enchantment continues.

Re: AotP Question Dump

I played AotP with friends and we weren't sure about one thing. If a player uses a spell card that says "deal 3 damage" or any amount of damage to a figure... does the opponent roll for defence? or the deal x damage sorcery cards are unblockable?

Re: AotP Question Dump

Those damage are unblockable unless you can pull some card or ability that can block it.

Re: AotP Question Dump

Sorry if this has been asked before, but can you enchant creatures that have not been summoned yet?

But if a creature is returned to your reserve, the enchantments come off, incorrect?. correct.

Re: AotP Question Dump

No, only if a squad is destroyed do the spells come off. Since a unit that returns to your reserve can be summoned again, the spells remain on it.

Sorry - I disagree. I think the answer is "No" you cannot play spells on creatures that are not summoned yet.

Per the rule book, at the start of the game your Planeswalker is placed in front of you and the army card and figures for other units are placed to the side in your Reserve.

Army cards/figures are only moved into play when Summoned (from the Reserve). With this in mind, I think of the cards in Reserve as out of the game until summoned - and therefore cannot be affected until they enter the battlefield.
