Title: Souls in rainbow sites?
Post by: emonier on March 13, 2018, 08:30:09 PM: QUESTION:

Can you put a lost soul in a rainbow site (e.g. Ends of the Earth; AW or RJ)?

I understand that this would not help in stopping rescues (any brigade can get into the site).

But if this were legal, then you could do it to activate the special ability on the soul (e.g. (G) 1 Cor. 1:27 -- "If you put this soul in a site, each of your opponents must discard a card from hand").

Also, if Ends of the Earth had a soul in it, could you still take the site into battle with you?

Thanks,

Eric

OK.

But, when you say an "occupied site cannot be used in battle," could I just take the soul out and then bring the site in (at will)?

Or, does the act of bringing it in automatically kick the soul out (back into land of bondage)?

Thanks.

You can't take a soul out of a site unless a special ability tells you to.

* If the site goes to hand, then you have to lay the lost soul back down.

Souls don't follow relocated sites.

By game rule, yes. But under certain circumstances they can; i.e., Hormah.
