Title: Artifacts and curses
Post by: Jeremystair on April 30, 2017, 09:05:12 PM

Are all snake icons activated as artifacts curses? For instance is thorns and thistles considered a curse? Nowhere on the card does it say that it is but I assume that it is because of the snake icon.

Yes and they are evil cards, not neutral.

Wow so if a card says you can discard an evil card and a territory and a curse is activated you can discard that card?

Yes and if it says you may shuffle a neutral card you can not target a curse

Side note curses and covenants that are active in territory have brigade value as well. A curse or cov can be targeted as either an enh or artifact in hand, deck, or discard but once played it is one or the other (either an enh in battle or artifact in territory).
