Hero Matthew (Levi) enters battle. (7/7)
Matthew is blocked by Antiochus IV Epiphanes. (11/10)
Matthew then plays Plague of Frogs (2/2), but the ability is "Regardless of immunity return an evil character in play to owner's draw pile.  Shuffle draw pile."
So since Antiochus does not have initiative by the numbers does that mean the battle is now over?

Isaiah enters battle (7/8)
Gomer is used to block (3/3)
Gomer plays Great Image (0/0) ability "All opponents' Heroes in play that are not in the Field of Battle at end of this battle must be discarded."  So since Isaiah is not dying and does not have initiative by the numbers, Great Image cannot be interrupted, or negated.?.?

it's covenant of Noah

Gomer retains initiative in that scenario.

This is somewhat of a initiative question:
Say attacker uses Levi (10/10)
Blocker blocks with Saph (10/10), and then bands in Goliath (10/10)
Levi has initiative then uses Put to Flight (4/2) ability is "All banding of Evil Characters is negated for remander of battle."
So because the blocker has initiative can Goliath use Bringing Fear (3/3) ability is "If used by a Philistine, negate all special abilities on characters and good Enhancements.  Cannot be negated."
or is he already out of the battle, and therefore not use another card?

Another question is ignore cards.
Say attacker uses Cherubim (5/5)
Blocker blocks with Lahmi (10/10)
Cherubim has initiative then uses Spiritual Warfare (0/0) ability is "Hero ignores all human Evil Characters."
does this follow suit with the shuffle/remove/capture cards where the initiative goes back to Evil Character, or does it count as an instant Redeemed Soul?

I thought you could play a card on gol because my evil character is being removed from battle and it IS causing me to get init.

But isn't that indirectly removing the character?

Okey dokey.

No it says 04:10:10

BTW, who looks at those little things?
