I believe there was a rule put in place to stop this infinate loop, because it was abused with drawing cards as well, so the player could draw their ENTIRE deck in one turn.

pretty sure that was the "only passing intiative 3 times" thing. but that involved banding and then retreating that hero. this is different because it uses the Long Day and doesn't need any more than 3 passes.

Jacob cannot enter battle more than once in the same turn.

Ah, so that's what the final ruling to stop that combo was? I remembered they had like, three options, and we all helped them pick which one was best.

Woh, woh, woh...you can only pass initiative three times for an entire battle?  Somebody tell me this is not true.  

May you prosper greatly!

I'm guessing this was one of the options and I got it mixed up. I remember the thread but not the outcome.

Nothing official was ever done with the 3 consecutive plays thing to my knowledge.
