Title: Side Battle banding?
Post by: Warrior_Monk on May 15, 2010, 11:43:06 PM: ok, so I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I really want to know why...

suppose we create a side battle with...Cup of Wrath. and then we make Demon in Armor fight Wandering Spirit. can Wandering Spirit band to Demon in Armor?

Post by: BubbleBoy on May 15, 2010, 11:46:59 PM: Yeah, do you mean band to the same character that's already in battle, or another copy of it?

Sauce is correct. which seems ridiculous, but why not?

Post by: YourMathTeacher on May 15, 2010, 11:48:46 PM: You cannot band to a character who is already in battle. "Band" is equivalent to "add to battle."

but you already did Characterless, so...

speaking of breaking the game, I sent the combo to Gabe.

yeah.
well, Gabe had already sent me a pm, and I figured I should let him know we made it safe, so...I'm lazy.

Post by: SirNobody on May 18, 2010, 01:41:55 PM: Hey,

Default condition for banding in the new REG (and also the status quo): "Targets must be 'in a territory or in holder's hand.'"

Tschow,

Tim "Sir Nobody" Maly

Post by: Red Dragon Thorn on May 18, 2010, 02:09:44 PM: So, then if I had a character in the main battle (say a High Priest Annas) and you create a side battle and give me a sadducee I can't band to Annas? I thought that you could? Is this a change, or me misinterpreting current rules.
Title: Re: Side Battle banding?
Post by: Minister Polarius on May 18, 2010, 02:14:55 PM: I think the latter. I've always understood banding to only target territories and your hand unless otherwise specified.

Post by: Lamborghini_diablo on May 18, 2010, 02:43:33 PM: Hmm, I also thought it was posible to band to characters who were in the main battle, but not the side battle.
Title: Re: Side Battle banding?
Post by: YourMathTeacher on May 18, 2010, 05:30:58 PM: I agree with Polarius. I was not aware that you could band to someone already in the Field of Battle.
