Anybody have any updates on when PoC might start shipping. I heard first part of December is when it's expected.

We have been "Without Prophecies" for a long time! It's well worth the wait! Glad to hear it's being shipped.  :D

We're deep into PoC phase 2 now. Maybe this is a good time to update you on how the card originally previewed as "400 Years of Silence" has evolved. It's actually turned into cards! These are still being tested and could change further.

Not according to the REG entry for "Look" or "Search".

How long have we known that we were making PoC? Here's a card we cut from CoW to save for this set.

Hmm. It's certainly interesting. I'd be a little more upset without the choose the _____ rule change. It's an intriguing card, lots of fun possibility this year. I honestly wanted her to be able to take a Bab king (or even Belshazzar specifically) from reserve. It would make stuff like Belshazzar and Nimrod maybe a little more playable.

That said, Nebbe being protected from opponents in territory is a little annoying. No more sniping him with Asahel-Jehu combos.

So with Bel's Mom can I choose any human prophet or is the default a good human prophet to attack? I base this on "human prophet" and "attack" rather than "rescue attempt". Just wondering...

Godspeed,
Mike

Based on its ability probably a curse; artifacts are usually more tangible items.

I agree; LP doesn't really strike me as an Artifact. A curse I could see. Maybe brown/gray to fit with the false prophet theme?

Every battle defines the alignment of its sides when it begins. You can only bring characters that match the alignment into a side of the battle.

"Attack" vs. "rescue attempt" is mainly to avoid arguments about valid selections when the new character is not rescuing, for whatever reason.

Looking at the Pagan Sailors preview, isn't "or Curse" in "activate an Artifact or Curse" redundant since Curses can be targeted as artifacts at face value?

Yea, I think so. To make it keep with the curse theme and maybe add interesting strategies, maybe you could somehow make it be able to play a curse from artifact pile as an enhancement. I'm not sure how that would fit in with the rules, but it would be pretty cool.

I think you could do that with something like "Return a Curse of matching brigade from artifact pile to hand and add it to battle."

What about:

If blocking, you may discard an artifact, activate your artifact, or toss a curse from your artifact pile hand (or reserve if Jonah is in play)

EDIT: Probably makes more sense to toss a curse from hand or reserve to help maintain the integrity of rules, which tossing a curse from the artifact pile could create.

Every battle defines the alignment of its sides when it begins. You can only bring characters that match the alignment into a side of the battle.

"Attack" vs. "rescue attempt" is mainly to avoid arguments about valid selections when the new character is not rescuing, for whatever reason.

Side battles between identical aligned characters became also more and more common even more due to all the appropriate cards printed within the last sets. So I assume for those kind of battles "Attack" makes sense.

But what about the alignment regarding this question in such battles? Could Bel's Mom remove the opposing EC from side battle and take a good human prophet (hero) as opposing charachter instead?

My statement still applies to side battles, as they are defined by whatever initially fights. So she couldn't change an EC for a Hero. Side battles thus far are EC vs EC or Hero vs Hero, main battles are always Hero vs EC.

Also, she doesn't work in side battles as she's not blocking in side battles.
