Title: Claudius Lysias
Post by: Watchman on August 22, 2017, 10:33:16 PM: "Transfer a captured hero to opponent." Verifying that it's to the owner's general territory and not to his LoB?

I don't see why it would not go to opponent's LoB. There isn't any other location you can put a Captured Hero and what would be the point of uncapturing a character?

Post by: Watchman on August 23, 2017, 08:47:38 AM: Then why not just say "Transfer a captured character to a land of bondage" or the like? The way the card's written is confusing and can be interpreted either way.
