1) Is scribe a Pharisee?
2) i have an AoG deck and i attack to which he plays bad dealings via athaliah. I have three amours (shield, Breastplate, shoes), what happens? Have i actually played an enhancement in battle for bad dealings to negate?
3) Can the AoG enhancements can be interrupted?
-
1) no 2) no 3) yes
-
could you explain the second one better?
-
the armor is played when it is placed. a hero entering battle/being in battle allows for and activates the placed card's abilities, but the aog cards were played in a previous phase when it was placed. btw i'm assuming you are saying you placed 3 armor of god enhancements then attacked for your opponent to attempt to negate and discard a previously placed armor of god enhancement with bad dealings, as if the armor of god enhancements were the last enhancements played in the battle, which i'm saying they were not.. because they were played when placed most likely in a previous phase entirely.

Same goes for weapons? Or are they considered played in battle because that's when they activate?
-
weapons are only placed outside of battle, once they activate in battle they are played. so the same situation where a hero enters battle with a weapon for example foreign sword, bad dealings would work to negate and discard it since it was the last enhancement played assuming it was not restricted by covenant with death or something like that.
-
which activates first, Weapon or character. Say for example my philistine chariots and horses on my armor bearer which one happens first?
-
I would say that the character happens first because the weapon is only an enhancement and an enhancement that is not a weapon class is activated after being played which is after the character. I hope this makes sense.
-
thats what i thought i just wanted to make sure
-
Yes, the character activates, then weapons, then placed enhancements trigger. Since nothing actually happens in the game rules when an enhancement played on a character enters battle, each one has "When character enters battle...". This means they are all triggered abilities. So any placed enhancements have to wait for any abilities on the characters and weapons finish, then they have a chance to trigger.
