Title: Lying in Wait
Post by: Minister Polarius on October 22, 2009, 04:59:44 PM

Lying in Wait:
"Take an Evil Character from your hand and place it face-down on an occupied Site. A rescue attempt at that site allows character to band into battle."

Does this work like the Site Guard LS, or can the banding only occur at the beginning of the RA?

I thought you could that way you could use the site guard lost soul and lying into wait and have a massive band

Here is the "Play As" from the REG:

Take an Evil Character from your hand and place it face down on an occupied site. If rescuing Hero(s) have access to that site, the Evil Character may be banded into battle.

Based on the wording of an if-then statement with a "may", I would think that a rescuer who gains access to the site later in the battle would trigger the SA.

Based off that, I'd say it does work the same way. Sweet!

May means that you can bring it in in whichever battle that you want. Right?

Only a battle with heroes and evil characters, not a side battle.

The best is to use it on a multi-colored site, cause the heroes ALWAYS have access. That's what I do.  :D

Wait...  :-X

Thats not as crazy as it sounds TBH.  ;)

A surprise KoT or something is almost as effective as putting the soul in a site.
