does the Guard lost soul allow you to add a character to battle if the other one was removed by an SA?

"When you place this card in a Site, you may put an Evil Character face down from hand, The Darkness or Tartaros on that Site. During a rescue attempt at that Site, you may add that Character to battle."

if so, this card + D-Raid is beast.

I believe the "add to battle" happens at the beginning of battle as in you choose to use it or you lose the ability to do so.  I could be wrong though.

This on a multi woudl be an interesting strategy

with Prof.  I use this in many of my decks as well.

The Site Guard works like another Unknown Nation. You can add the Guard at any time during battle. The best part is, because it's face down and out of play, it's virtually untargetable before it's used. I've used the Site Guard in a good majority of my decks since I learned the strategy.

Sure just post my epic defense combo all over the place

Actually, the first person who showed me the combo after my return to Redemption following RoA was Polarius. He used pretty much all of the same cards as Lambo to have tons of extra blocks.

I shall have to steal his deck then and laugh evilly.

AoCP says All Evil Characters in Play... face down cards are not "In Play".

So is the add to battle ability CBN?

hmmmm i retract my former satement. I forgot that simple rule...I needs to think before i speak...or type in this situation...

That is correct.  The ability adding KoT is not on a character or enhancement, so KoT doesn't negate it.

So would Dragon Raid discard the face down evil character guarding the site?

not if it's on pergamum. not if pergamum is occupied or any of the angel wars ones.

Te guard LS doesnt have to be on Pergamum, it can be in any site if Pergamum is also occupied because pergamum targets dragon raid itself, while the AW sited only protect against dragon raid.

Dragon Raid targets cards in play.  Since the EC if face-down, it is NOT in play.  Therefore it wouldn't be discarded.

I am not so sure about this.

Dragon Raid
Type: Site • Brigade: Multicolor • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: Discard all evil cards in one site (not Lost Souls). • Identifiers: None • Verse: Isaiah 6:8 •

Since it is on the site, we know it is evil.  I know it is out of play if face down, but still, is there no argument to be made that since it MUST be an evil card, that it cannot be targeted by DR?

All cards default to play

and do we know its evil? How can we tell? Are you peeking at my cards? CHEATER!
