Just a rules change on "First Strike" :]

What if First Strike was effectively doubling the attack numbers on a character? Like the character "Struck First" and then the battle resumes? Would that make the ability more interesting, or do we like it as is?

Strangely enough that's what I thought first strike was when I first started playing.  However, doing so would make several characters' abilities above King David's, so I highly doubt anyone official (particularly Bryon) would be in favor of such a change.

Yeah, Ehud would become the most powerful card in the game.

Ehud isn't good in Judges Seat because he could only d/c ECs over 7.

or what if first strike gave them the ability to play first enh? that kind of sounds fair.

no no no.... ET and Jake are enough, plus David's Throne does that often enough, just with a small limitation. We don't need any more character's to play first, especially not that many.

Besides, isn't fundamentally changing a game rule probably a bad idea?

Definitely.  It would be like changing "discard" to "remove from game".

That's why you put Eli the Priest or Deborah on the seat :thumbup:

You and everybody else says that, but that's not what the reg says. I just looked it up. ::)
