Cactus Game Design Message Boards

My son and I just finished a game and I was too brain-fried to remember the rulings on these two scenarios:

1. Does I am Justice activate if the hero is discarded by the numbers? We voted yes.

2. a. My son RA with Elhanan.
    b. I block with Huge Eqyptian holding Egyptian Spear.
    c. My son discards two cards from draw pile.
    d. My son has initiative and plays Words of Encouragement.
Does the interrupt cause the two discarded cards to return to draw pile and become two of the three that he draws with WoE? If so, does he then discard the next two cards when the interrupt ends? We voted yes to both.

1: If you choose to activate it. Yes, Remember it says may.

After three successive blocks by Huge Egyptian and his Spear, my son definitely wanted to use it. 

2: Yes AND No. It does ITB huge e's spear. It does NOT itb huge E.
Itb Interrupts Ongoing abilities (huge E completed), Battle winners, and the last enh played by an OPP.

Ah yes, forgot about that little detail. Rats! He got back his Pillar of Fire, too.

-------------------------------------

As a side note, my son was particularly tickled that huge Egyptian discarded his Enoch. 

It should just reactivate after the interrupt. The most common use of interrupt is to stop battle winners that are instant abilities (i.e. capture, discard), but interrupt is only a temporary solution if you can't get rid of the character or enhancement that is using the SA. Otherwise, the battle winner will still do its thing after the interrupt.
