Another side battle
« on: March 21, 2009, 12:26:33 PM »

I'm trying to work through some initiative/negate scenarios with side battles. 

Does BBTN carry over from the side battle to main battle and vice versa?  Same question when playing Ambushing the City.

If I block my opponent with Reheboam and in the side battle play In the Clouds to return their rescuing hero, when and how can my opponent interrupt/negate that? 

Can they directly negate In the Clouds or do they only have the chance to indirectly negate by negating Reheboam?  Would it make a difference if I also shuffled Reheboam during the side battle?

in the side battle, if you have a card to negate it.

Yes they can directly negate it.

Yes.

That gets iffy because Ambush the City (1) sets cards aside thus taking them out of play and out of the general range of by the numbers cards and (2) isn't a side battle card.  I discussed this with Mike a year or so ago, we disagreed initially and never came to a consensus, maybe it's time to bring that back up :)

They can directly negate In the Clouds in the side battle or they can indirectly negate it by negating Reheboam in the original battle.  Shuffling Reheboam would not affect when a negate can be played, but it could potentially affect what negates would work (a "negate the ability of any Evil Character in play." doesn't work if Reheboam is shuffled, but would if he wasn't shuffled.)

Tschow,

thx, that is helpful.  I would definitely like to know what the resolution is on Ambush the City since playing it with BBTN is a very likely scenario.  As for Reheboam...

Assume that the opponent never gets initiative to play in the side battle.  When it returns to the original battle they could play something to negate Reheboam (and thus indirectly negate In the Clouds) like Blessings, right?  But if Reheboam is no longer in play then they can't negate him with that, right?  So what options does that leave the opponent to negate In the Clouds?  The only thing I can think of that the opponent would legally be able to play is an interrupt the battle card but that won't negate or stop ItCs.  It would help them if they used it to band in another hero but I can't think of anything else. 

I just want to make sure I'm correctly understanding the situation here.

You can't negate cards that are not in play with FBN, so if you play FBN while those cards are set-aside by Ambush the City, they continue to work when they come back, but additional cards played are prevented.
