Cactus Game Design Message Boards

Me and my friends have come up with a bunch of questions regarding the game,
if you could please answer as many as you can it would be great!
(sorry if these questions have already been posted)

1. When it says turns on a card are I am to assume that they are of the owner of the cards?

2. Does Judges Seat go in play our out of play?

3. When it says "may band to all Sadducees" can you chose to only band to 1 of the 2?

4. If the result of a decrease of a characters /* is 0 or lower does it get discarded?

5. The Jeremiah 13:10 Lost Soul states that "While this card is in a single-color Lost Soul Site, Evil Characters in holder's territory are immune to that brigade color" how does this exactly function? (do they keep the immunity whent he go into battle?)

6. For the Name-on-Name bonus Captain of the Host with the refrence of Joshua 5: 14 and Captains Sword with a refrence of 5:13. For the bonus the enhancement contains only part of the whole name of the character does it take affect? (Angel in the Path + Angels Sword same refrence Numbers 22:32)

7. Does a Prophetess fill the same shoes as a Prophet? (Special ability says, if used by a Prophet)

8. Are all Paslms testiment enhancements considered as "involving music"?

9. Whats the deal with Generic cards? What is the significance? How can you tell who is Generic?

10. Does the backround color of cards simbolize anything? (rarer card I knowhave gold backrounds but other then that?)

11. What happens when you ignore half of a character? (Hero ignores gold, Evil Charater is both brown and gold.)

12. If your Evil Character is immune to gold brigade and to use Judges Seat (Fortress) you must have a gold brigade Judge in it is the Evil Character immune to the discard of the Judges Seat? (Sorry wording in this question is tricky)

13. Can you band to another Brigade to gain as access to a Site? (Blue Brigade to band to Red Brigade to gain access to a Red Site.) Does this mean that they are entering battle together or does one enter then the other?

14. How does Tartaros exaclty funtion? In what case are you actually discarding your own Demon and also in the opposite in what is someone else discarding your Demon? (I think it would be that the person who caused the discard is the person discarding?) Also what are some good stratagies of useing this card?

My answers will be bolded under your questions.

1. When it says turns on a card are I am to assume that they are of the owner of the cards?
You mean like 'set this card aside for 3 turns'? if so yes it means YOUR turns.
2. Does Judges Seat go in play our out of play?
All cards default to in play unless they say otherwise
3. When it says "may band to all Sadducees" can you chose to only band to 1 of the 2?
I think you can band to any number of them.
4. If the result of a decrease of a characters /* is 0 or lower does it get discarded?
Yes, but characters in battle don't get d/c'd till after battle.
5. The Jeremiah 13:10 Lost Soul states that "While this card is in a single-color Lost Soul Site, Evil Characters in holder's territory are immune to that brigade color" how does this exactly function? (do they keep the immunity whent he go into battle?)
Territory is not battle(see diagram on field of play that came with the rulebook). How it works is you site the ls in say a gold site. Then your Ecs in your territory are safe from say plauge of flies.
6. For the Name-on-Name bonus Captain of the Host with the refrence of Joshua 5: 14 and Captains Sword with a refrence of 5:13. For the bonus the enhancement contains only part of the whole name of the character does it take affect? (Angel in the Path + Angels Sword same refrence Numbers 22:32)
Yes. But be warned Angel's sword won't give Name on name on any angel. Just angel in the path.
7. Does a Prophetess fill the same shoes as a Prophet? (Special ability says, if used by a Prophet)
Yes.
8. Are all Paslms testiment enhancements considered as "involving music"?
Sadly, No but here is a list of musical enhancements http://www.redemptionreg.com/REG/gloss_involvingmusic.htm
9. Whats the deal with Generic cards? What is the significance? How can you tell who is Generic?
Any card that says its generic . Any card that isn't a specific person. Generic simply means you can have more than one in play at a time. or some cards say they must be used by a unique character, So generic doesn't fit the bill. E.g. You can have only 1 Ira out But 2 Egyptian Archers (if your deck is 100+ or T2).
10. Does the backround color of cards simbolize anything? (rarer card I knowhave gold backrounds but other then that?)
Absolutely nothing. Just looks cool

11. What happens when you ignore half of a character? (Hero ignores gold, Evil Charater is both brown and gold.)
Assuming no enhancements are played after that? No Gold characters (Even partially gold) may enter battle and any in battle are ignored. The Gold/Brown Character CAN still play brown enhancements to hurt your hero, and gold enhancements to effect anything but the hero. He also retains init till he either finds a way to kill you, Negates your ignore, or ends the battle by losing.
12. If your Evil Character is immune to gold brigade and to use Judges Seat (Fortress) you must have a gold brigade Judge in it is the Evil Character immune to the discard of the Judges Seat? (Sorry wording in this question is tricky)
No because fortresses have no color. Good question though.

13. Can you band to another Brigade to gain as access to a Site? (Blue Brigade to band to Red Brigade to gain access to a Red Site.) Does this mean that they are entering battle together or does one enter then the other?
Yes you can band like that. First the hero with the banding ability enters. Completes all abilities sides banding then bands to the blue hero.
14. How does Tartaros exaclty funtion? In what case are you actually discarding your own Demon and also in the opposite in what is someone else discarding your Demon? (I think it would be that the person who caused the discard is the person discarding?) Also what are some good stratagies of useing this card?
Instead of the demon going to the d/c pile he goes to tartarsauce (Joke on the name). Then when you block successfully with a demon you pull a demon out of there and put it in your territory. The person who caused the discarding gets the demon in his tartaros. A child is born works well to kill off opponent's demons. Also using stuff like demon behind the idol without an idol up, would d/c him (By YOUR s.a.) after battle putting him in tartaros, same with using discard all cards in the field of battle type enhancements with your own demon.

Oh, and welcome to the boards ^_^.

Actually, the answer to #8 is yes.  If you check the list, you'll see that all good Enhancements with a Psalm reference are on the list (e.g. Hope, Hind's Feet).

Yes, there are more than just those with a Psalms reference, but what he's saying is that all good enhancements with a Psalms reference are considered musical.

It just happens that way, I think; it isn't necessarily, like, a rule.

How is Stillness a musical Enhancement, in your mind, other than having a reference from Psalms? Or Banner of Truth?

Stillness - how could you have music without "rests"?
Banner of Truth - don't you know the children's song about His "Banner" Over Me?

Just joking of course

How is Stillness a musical Enhancement, in your mind, other than having a reference from Psalms? Or Banner of Truth?

Psalms are songs as Scripture, therefore, all good Enhancements from those books, by default, involve music.

I realize that, and I have no problem with it, I simply thought it was decided otherwise.  Good to know it was decided this way.
