Will Goliath's taunt ability have a limit on it? Like once per game or something? Also, if someone attacks me with Thomas, and I use Goliath's ability to return him to territory, they can not present a new disciple and then play sent two by two to band Thomas back in, Right? Isn't the rule that a character that has been sent back to territory or withdrawn themselves can not enter battle in the same turn?

How does taunt work? Could someone give me an example?

So you get to use that every time Goliath blocks?

Sure. When your opponent has no LS's available, then you can issue a battle challenge. You can do so with any Hero, or with an EC with a Taunt identifier. The Taunter's SA activates, and then the opponent has to decide whether to accept the challenge with a Hero/Heroes. If the opponent doesn't accept, then the ability associated with the Taunt is completed. If the opponent does accept, then you have a battle, and if the Hero loses (by removal or stalemate) then the ability associated with the Taunt is completed. If the Hero wins, then the ability is not carried out.

In a few playtest games that I've used Goliath, I've never used the Taunt, but I suppose someone may figure out a way to make it useful. I guess we'll see.

I thought you could only Taunt if your opponent has no LSs at all (not just ones that you don't have access to), is this not the case?
