The problem is the fact that under the current rules, you can't begin a battle challenge with LS's available. It is still unclear what that would mean in certain situations. If the only LS available is the female only, could you "battle challenge" with Simeon and band to Anna? Could you "battle challenge" with AutO and exchange for Deborah? I could see arguments for or against either situation, and there are probably a whole host of other situations that could come up.

There's also the question of what happens if Burial Shroud is activated mid-battle, like with Meal in Emmaus. That has been ruled to work in a way that you could still rescue a LS during your battle that you activated it. Of course, that was back when Restrict wasn't defined and Burial Shroud was deemed a Prevent, so it may have changed.

Part 1b of the Proposal covers both of those situations. Restrict holder from starting a rescue attempt or rescuing a soul as a result of battle. Makes it simple. No matter what changes after the BC is issued, if BS isn't negated you don't get a lost soul as a result of any action taken during the battle excepting SoG/NJ as they don't count as a RA. This would work no matter what point in the battle BS was activated.
Just one more thing...

Well, since you asked so nicely, I'll see what I can do...see what progress you can make when you're not ornery?   ;)

I mean no disrespect or annoyance, but can we please have an update? :prayer: Even if the update is "we haven't talked about this yet". (Believe me, I understand the definition of "busy", and it does not come off as an excuse to me. Life can be crazy) ;)

Again, any new readers/elders to this thread need not start at the beginning, just a page or 2 back. I think there have been 5+ summaries on the issues given in the thread (so I'm not adding another!). If it helps to know that there is a REASON we want to know this, it very much affects whether or not I would use Shroud in a current Type II project deck...
