So it goes in your territory. (I'm glad I actually looked that up, because I would have said it went to hand. )
...unless specified otherwise. He has a play as. That overrides the previous ability.
That cannot be correct. A card that does not specify to place in play goes to hand.
We all "know" the rule ....
I looked a while ago, and the closest thing there was the quote that YMT found about banding from the draw pile. I believe every search card has an ability or Play As with a given destination, including Zaccheus.
We all "know" the rule that if a search card doesn't say what to do with the card you searched for it goes to your hand. But can anyone point me to where in the REG/Rulebook it says that?
What would be the other logical default?

The current ruling for "may" special abilities says that the "may" applies to all parts of the same sentence. So, you may search for a fortress, and then you may put it in play. It's up to you if you want to keep it in your hand.
when you seach for a card it goes to your hand unless stated otherwise(aka in play)when you play a card it comes from your hand .what about cards like false priest? Is that the one that says "search for a card with false in your discard and play it" does a card like this play from the discard pile or from your hand?
Well, unless you're using the Force, you will use your hand to get it from the discard pile.
As to whether it was actually in your "Hand" is academic.
Hey,Quote from: metalpsalm on June 14, 2009, 02:31:32 PMAs to whether it was actually in your "Hand" is academic.I disagree. I think it is very, very significant whether or not it goes to your "Hand." Consider a hypothetical artifact with the ability, "Protect all Old Testament enhancements in your hand from being played." Now if I play Pride of Simon while that is active and wish to play Joseph in Prison from my discard pile, it is of central importance whether or not Joseph in Prison is searched added to hand and played from hand or searched and played from discard pile. If it is played from hand, it isn't because the artifact protects it from being played, if it is played from the discard pile directly it is played.Tschow,Tim "Sir Nobody" Maly
The fortress' ability activates as soon as it enters play. I think you are confusing the fact that characters can only be removed/added to fortresses during your Preparation Phase.
We agree. We were just generalizing fortress rules, since some fortresses do not require the garrisoning of characters.
-0.4 points for not somehow sticking "keillor" in there too.
