Title: End battle abilities (revisited with new cards)
Post by: Josh on August 25, 2011, 10:57:23 PM: Scenario 1: My opponent attacks me, I block with Egyptian Magicians, reveal the bottom card of deck (Wonders Forgotten), add it to battle. At this point, Egyptian Magicians' ability has not completed, but I played a card that forces battle resolution. Can I still carry out pending abilities? For instance, can I band to a character equipped with horses and play an enhancement off of them? And if so, would my opponent have initiative to negate this enhancement?

Scenario 2: Same, except this time I band Lot's Wife to Egyptian Magicians, reveal Wrath of Satan, add it to battle, band to a Egyptian character with horses and play Wonders Forgotten. Does my opponent have "special initiative" to negate the card I added to battle (in this case Wrath of Satan)? Or not, since I already forced battle resolution?

Basically, I want to know if I can abuse an evil character that can add two evil cards to battle each time he blocks.

Egyptian Magicians (FF2)

Type: Evil Char. • Brigade: Gold/Pale Green • Ability: 2 / 4 • Class: None • Special Ability: Reveal the top or bottom card of your deck. If it is evil, add it to hand and draw 1, or add it to battle. May band to an Egyptian. Cannot be interrupted.

If you have Wonders Forgotten under your deck and an Egyptian with Horses and you block with Egyptian Magicians, I don't know why you would ever decide to play Wonders Forgotten with Magicians anyway.
