Title: Pending abilities
Post by: Watchman on February 09, 2019, 04:00:36 PM
If I block with a giant who has Lahmi’s Spear equipped to him, and I have Hebron out as a fortress, if I use the spear to discard the opposing sole hero and he doesn’t negate it (thus I win the battle), can I still band to a son of Anak (so I can benefit from that next giant’s ability) and also draw 2 off of Hebron, even though I won the battle but the band and draw are still pending abilities?

Yes, you can still complete those abilities.

To clarify since I see this misconception a decent amount, removing the opponent's last character doesn't end the battle. Even once those pending abilities complete the battle is still going and each player has a chance to activate abilities(especially things like Gates), play dominants, etc until both players agree to move to battle resolution or someone plays an end the battle ability.

And to also add to this if there is a pending, mandatory ability that must be carried out after the opposing player’s last character is removed from battle that ability must still be completed.
