Title: Side Battle Q
Post by: Neil Da BOMB J on November 10, 2011, 01:10:02 PM
1. I play Sword against Sword

2. I choose Lot's Wife to fight there evil character

3. Can I band to the evil character that I'm fighting, thus taking him out of battle and winning the side battle?

Band abilities have never been able to target characters already in battle, so no you couldn't do that.

Couldn't find that in the REG, did I miss something?

What REG am I reading...?



Banding is a special ability (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_specialability.htm) given to characters (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_characters1.htm). Band­ing allows two or more characters to join together. When two or more characters are banded (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_banded.htm) together, they are regarded as a com­bined force instrength (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_strength.htm) and toughness (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_toughness.htm). Banding cards are played during battle (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_battle.htm). The banding special ability (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_ability.htm) can be either on a char­acter or on anenhancement (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_enhancement.htm). The banding card does not hold the second character (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/Master/gloss_character.htm)in battle; it is simply what allows the second character to join the battle.

If it helps, the sections I quoted above were found at this navigational path: REG -> Instant Abilities -> Band -> General Description/Default Conditions.

That's weird.  I usually just go to definitions.

Definitions is okay for general stuff, but specific questions like this are usually better answered by the little bit more in-depth information in the other sections.

You cannot join the battle when you are already there.
