What's the current ruling on that?
-
A stalemate if neither player has another card to play.

Protect protects from the numbers. The REG is 100% accurate.

I disagree:

That discussion never really came to a conclusion, but my point still stands. The REG clearly states that protection from cards ONLY protects from special abilities.
In order to be protected from numbers, you must be protected from discard.

I said REG I meant this thread (http://www.cactusgamedesign.com/message_boards/redemption-official-rules/rule-clarifications-additions-and-edits/msg434384/#msg434384), which has never been overturned and is the current ruling, whether or not you disagree.

Yay for conflicting rule sources!
-
The REG is wrong. Two Elders in the thread you posted agreed that protection applies to numbers.
-
I agree with Chris that the status quo is that Protection protects from numbers. Some of us have been debating for a change, but that has not come yet.
-
I had totally forgotten about that thread, so I do agree with you Chris (as much as I don't like that ruling in the first place). It just bugs me when we have two rule sources in conflict like this.

What about negate? Does "negate the last enhancement" take away the numbers as well as the special ability?

No - just the ability.

Annnnnndddddd...... that's the other part of the argument from the previous thread related to this topic. ;D
Negate used to also negate the numbers if it said to negate the "enhancement" or "card." But, that is the rule that was changed. I was hoping we would do the same for Protection. I was arguing that they should be ruled the same, but that will not likely happen. :-\

Dear to whom it may concern,
This is why we need to have an "Advanced Rules" rulebook, (which will NEVER happen) b\c there are too many instances of ruling questions and conflicting rulings.

A very upset customer
The new rulebook even mentions one, but I have yet to see it.

That's probably cause if they where to print it would resemble an encyclopedia more then a rule book.

I think all you would need is something like the following...

embedded in the appropriate places of the rulebooks that went out with the new starter.
How awesome would it have been to have that actually shipped as part of the starter set?
P.S. Yes-it actually works.

Yeah, but some people (like me) don't have smart phones and it makes that difficult to decode. Luckily I read QR and know what it says. ::)
