Title: Dust and Ashes Question
Post by: Chronic Apathy on February 11, 2011, 05:46:06 PM: If Job is placed in Dust and Ashes, would he retain any abilities gained from set aside cards?

Raising of the Saints (Pi)
Type: Hero Enh. • Brigade: Yellow • Ability: 3 / 2 • Class: None • Special Ability: Interrupt one good Fortress in your territory or set-aside area. Return all Heroes in that Fortress to your territory. • Identifiers: None • Verse: Matthew 27:52-53

Post by: SonofLar on February 11, 2011, 07:56:08 PM: I'm not sure that would work. It seems to me that since Raising of the Saints targets a fortress with the interrupt ability, than retrieves the heroes, that the retrieving of heroes is based on whether it could target the fortress or not. And I don't think you can target a CBN with an interrupt ability. But that's just my opinion. ;D

Swift Horses (FF) can be played after Faith in Our High Priest (played on a NT hero). It doesn't interrupt the enhancement, but you still get to draw (and play next if used by a Babylonian).

True indeed.

I don't see why not. However, if you're using Raising of the Saints in a Job deck, you're not doing Job justice.
