The figure used for this unit is a Dungeons & Dragons figure from the Waterdeep: Dragon Heist set. The model name and number is Merchant - 6a.


Character Bio: On Earth, Ranjit was the famed Mahajara of Punjab, greatly expanding the Sikh empire. He filled his court with representatives from many cultures. Einar summoned Ranjit to Valhalla to unite the Allied Generals like never before. Ranjit inspires the forces of disparate Valkyrie generals to fight with together with strength they could not have alone.

LION OF PUNJAB
Before rolling for initiative, you may reveal the 'X' Order Marker on this Army Card. If you do, while your other three Order Markers are on Army Cards you control that follow three different Valkyrie Generals, every Unique figure you control with an Order Marker on its card adds 1 to its Move and Attack.

DIPLOMATIC SUBTERFUGE
Once per round, after moving and before attacking, you may choose a figure within 4 clear sight spaces of Ranjit Singh and roll the 20-sided die. If you roll an 8 or higher, remove one unrevealed Order Marker at random from the chosen figure's Army Card (or Cards if your opponent has more than one Common card for that figure).

_________________________________________________________________
-Rulings and Clarifications-

Q: For Lion of Punjab, can one of the numbered order markers be on Ranjit Singh's army card?
A: Yes.

Q: Is Lion on Punjab is effect if an order marker is on an army card where all the figures have been destroyed?
A: No. Once all the figures of an Army Card have been destroyed, it is no longer considered to be an Army Card you control. Note that the power could stop working in the middle of an enemy turn, if the first figure of a squad kills the last figure of one of the army cards with an order marker on it.

Q: If Ranjit Singh is destroyed, do the other units still benefit from Lion of Punjab?
A: No. Like other powers, the effect of the power ends when all figures on the army card are destroyed.

Q: How does Lion of Punjab interact with the Glyph of Xipta?
A: There is a dice-off to see which happens first. Lion of Punjab can only be used if the "X" is on Ranjit when the power is used.

Q: What happens to Lion of Punjab if numbered OMs are moved or removed?
A: The bonus from Lion of Punjab only works as long as the three numbered OMs are on different cards you control. If that condition is no longer met due to OMs being moved (e.g. by Xipta or Rygarn) or removed (e.g. by Dünd or the Mindflayer Mastermind) then the bonus immediately stops working.

Q: Can Diplomatic Subterfuge be used if Ranjit is not attacking that turn?
A: Yes, "after moving and before attacking" denotes where in the turn the power is used; it does not require moving or attacking.

Does Lion of Punjab require the 3 order markers to be on Valkyrie Generals that are not Einar since the X is on Ranjit, or must they only be different from each other?

And is there yet a consensus on how to decide removing an unrevealed order marker at random; randomized vs chosen, or is it pre-agreed?

[AndreThaGiant]

I'm not on the rules team or anything, but based upon the "other" in the clause, I have to assume Einar can be one of the 3 OM's.

Before rolling for initiative, you may reveal the 'X' Order Marker on this Army Card. If you do, while your other three Order Markers are on Army Cards you control that follow three different Valkyrie Generals, every Unique figure you control with an Order Marker on its card adds 1 to its Move and Attack.

[Blue Trails]

I concur with Andre; you only need to place your numbered Order Markers on cards that don't share a general. Moreover, during the 2020 C3V Playtesting Tournament, there were 3 armies that ran Ranjit with an Einar unit, which makes a pretty good case for such figures benefitting from Lion of Punjab.

And, because it doesn't say "other Army Cards", I'd even go as far as to assume that 1 of the 3 numbered ordered markers could go on Ranjit himself in addition to the 'X'.

Should be fixed now.

Question regarding the Lion of Punjab. Say it's the beginning of the round and you drop X for Lion, but 2 of your OMs are on Einar and 1 is on Jandar (for example). If I used Rygarn at any point during the round to relocate one of the OMs from that Einar card to an Utgar card (now 3 different generals) does lion activate at that moment? Or is it entirely dependent upon the placement of the Order Markers at the time the X is revealed?

It looks like you reveal the X before initiative and "if you do, WHILE your other three Order Markers are on Army Cards" you get the boost. So I would say Rygarn wouldn't affect that since the condition is checked before initiative with the OMs as they are.

[Sir Heroscape]

I believe that's incorrect Ulysses. Rygarn is one of the reasons this interaction works so well with him. You can reveal the X order marker at the beginning of the round to activate the ability and at any point if the OM's meet the condition of the ability, the buff of the ability is then given.

This is how I understood it as well.
