New Redemption Grab Bag now includes an assortment of 500 cards from five (5) different expansion sets. Available at Cactus website.
Paul should not be corrupted either. But I would guess he becomes a CBN 10/10 brown evil character.
Instant Abilities > ConvertHow to UseEvil Characters may only be converted to Hero brigade colors (i.e., blue, green, purple, red, silver, teal, white, and gold). The only exception is Saul/Paul (as Saul), whose natural brigade color is multicolor when a Hero. When no color is specified on a conversion enhancement card, the character converts to the same brigade color as the conversion enhancement card. The converted character remains under the control of its owner. The character reverts to its original state only if the card is returned to the draw pile, placed in the discard pile, or converted back. The character remains converted even if set aside, captured, or rescued. Rules for duplicate characters still apply.

It's to prevent amsai the raider and gabe abuse.
It has been stated before (can't find the thread again) that Cactus has always intended the Heroes to remain, as a whole, slightly stronger than the ECs. This was one of the reasons that Heroes did not retain their SAs when converted to ECs and ECs retained as much of their SA as possible, that did not contradict game rules, when converted to Heroes.Godspeed,Mike
So a character with CBN status loses when converted? please explain...
Kind of like a deck with no Heroes? When a Hero converts to an Evil Character their ability does not convert with them. It doesn't have anything to do with negating the ability so whether or not it's CBN is irrelevant.
Having no SA and having a SA that does not convert are not the same in my mind.
Grat, so now I'm really confused:A hero has a CBN SA, and is converted, so he loses the ability, but it isn't being negated...but he still has it...?

Scenario: I have a Saul/Paul card in play that I have successfully converted to Paul. I attack with Paul. My opponent blocks with an orange character and plays Corrupted. Does Paul become a 10/10 brown character with CBN enhancements? Or does something else happen since he used to be an evil character?Corrupted - "Convert a human Hero to a brown brigade Evil Character. Cannot be prevented by a good card if an occupied Site is in play."Saul/Paul (Paul side) - "May not be poisoned. All enhancements played on Paul may not be interrupted, negated or prevented."
Isn't this a protect ability? I always saw this as a protect ability. That is how it's played with Melkasadek (sp) If so, then He can't be corrupted anyways unless you interrupt it.
Well in that case I'm just mad.
How can someone lose an ability yet still be considered to have an ability without his ability being negated?
shall we talk about wookies?
So, if I convert an EC with an ability that harms another hero.... I would not be allowed to use Windows of Narrow Light or Passover Preparations on him?

I would not be allowed to use Windows of Narrow Light or Passover Preparations on him?Correct.Additionally, if a character like Lot's Wife is converted, it would be ignored by Household Idols and/or discarded by Torn Mantle because it is a good card with a banding ability despite the fact that it can never use it's banding ability while it's a good card.Tschow,Tim "Sir Nobody" Maly
There are very few cards in the game that can even do what we're talking about. There are even less times that it will actually matter. If this is enough to make you mad then I'll suggest you take a step back and look at what's really important in life. This isn't it.But while we're discussing things that don't really matter... shall we talk about wookies?
