Drunkenness from EC originally made players trade seats and play one another's hand for a round. I guess that was broken though... ::)

It seems like pilgrim14 has a cool idea with Pride Before the Fall but hasn't communicated it well in that special ability. Since I can always play Evil Characters and Enhancements as if they were in my hand I'm not sure what exactly this adds to the game.

Post by: The Guardian on April 04, 2016, 10:16:04 AM: I could be wrong, but if he's going with the "default to play" idea then it would mean you could grab any Evil Character or Evil Enhancement in play, (yours or any opponents'), use it during your block and then remove it from the game afterward.

Post by: pilgrim14 on April 04, 2016, 02:28:30 PM: I wanted it to be more like you treat those cards like they are in your hand. The effect does not interupt anything, you can block from your DC pile and play enhancements from there at any time you normally could.

Post by: The Guardian on April 04, 2016, 03:06:50 PM: Wait, did you mean to say "Evil Characters and Evil Enhancements in discard pile" ?

The "in discard pile" got left off the card, which is what is confusing everyone. :P
