Title: Reg mistake?
Post by: galadgawyn on December 11, 2008, 09:57:56 PM

In the play as for Battering Ram it says:

Special Ability: If three or more Evil Characters are in battle, discard one O.T. Fortress site. Ability cannot be prevented or negated. Play As: When three or more Evil Characters are in battle, discard one O.T. Fortress. Ability cannot be prevented or negated. Characters in the Fortress are returned to territory. •

Why would it return the evil characters to territory?  That is not part of the ability and default rules say that the characters would be discarded.

My guess would be that the card was made when only protection forts (ie, Goshen and Kingdoms) were able to hold characters, so that was a clarification for what to do in those cases.

But the issue is the heroes would follow the fort regardless.

I think that might be an REG error.

Well, it's definitely an error, because something like that is technically an errata, not a play-as. The question is whether or not it's supposed to be there.

Oh, I completely left a sentence out: The entry is incorrect, as the contents follow the fortress.

That was an old (and now wrong) entry. I'll fix it.
