I Am Patience + Ahimaaz and Rhoda?

If I have I am Patience activated, and I go in with a rescue attempt with Ahimaaz or Rhoda then retreat, can I convert an EC?

I am Patience: Green Brigade Enhancement/Artifact that states "If your rescue attempt failed, you may convert a non-Warrior Class Human to a Green Brigade hero at the end of your turn.

Ahimaaz: A Teal 4/2 Priest that states: Protect this hero from capture. You may look at one opponent's hand or cards face down at a Site. You may then withdraw Hero from battle unharmed.

Rhoda: Green Brigade Hero that states: You may look at the top card of your deck. You may then retreat from the battle.

As long as there was an available Lost Soul so that it was a rescue attempt.

And as long as you convert a non-warrior class human to a green bigade hero.

EDIT: Wait, is that the actual wording? Are you really able to convert heroes to green as well?

No, that is an incorrect wording:

I Am Patience

Type: Covenant • Brigade: Green • Ability: 2 / 5 • Class: None • Special Ability: At the end of your turn, if your rescue attempt failed you may convert one human Evil Character (except warrior class) to a green brigade Hero. • Identifiers: NT • Verse: II Peter 3:9 • Availability: Angel Wars booster packs (Common)

When you post, make sure you copy the ability from the REG, don't just type it by memory.  :)

Alright, thanks. That's what I remember. :P

PS: Spy works with this combo also.

by retreat do you mean you can just retreat if you want,  play a card to get out of battle or die, but return because of your hero's special ability?  If you can just retreat at any time I am missing a bunch of combo's.

you must use the ability when you first enter battle or not use it at all.

Right, you can only withdraw when there is a special ability that says "withdraw".  In the case of these three Heroes, you have the opportunity to take a sneak peek and then pull out without risking the block.  Once the opponent blocks, you're committed.

Hey Schaef If you go to holdersheroes.com check out the conversion deck "Playing"the Great Commision:An Introduction to Conversion Decks ,At the bottom of the third paragraph it says :Rhoda, Spy, and Ahimaaz make  especially good use of (I Am Patience) because of their ability to withdraw from battle before a blocker is is presented-which still counts as a failed rescue attempt." Is there a place in the Reg that says otherwise???

No.  That's how they work.  That's consistent with what I said above, also, about leaving the battle before a blocker comes out.

Yeah, a little CoM or Golden Cow can put that to a halt real quick.  Prof pulled a deck on me with this mechanic and if I had had one more art, I could have pounded him.
