Welcome to the Official Redemption® Message Board!
Can you explain why please?
Because a site in your land of bondage is under your control. If I take my opponent's site in 2 player and play it down, even though I don't own it, I still control it.
"Teams share a common Land of Bondage, Land of Redemption and Fortress cards. The rest of the cards are unique to each player (GCs, ECs, artifact pile, draw pile, discard pile, hand) and are treated like a standard Type 1 game. Occupied sites are in the common land of bondage. Unoccupied sites return to the owner's territory."
"Cards may be put into fortresses by either player on a team during their turn, and removed from a fortress by either player on a team during their turn. This allows passing of characters (through KotW and Goshen) and enhancements (through Storehouse). It also allows limited shared control of artifacts (ie. in a temple). Because fortresses are shared, their abilities also affect both people on a team (ie. protecting a civilization)."
In Gabe's example, when Grace or Maggie attack do Teddy and Kyle have to determine who will block before only the blocker can utilyze FoA's ability? Or can only the player initially attacked use it? Or can they both use it before determining who will block since it is in a shared LoB that is being attacked?

Am I missing something here?
FoA isn't the first card of it's kind though. That's a ruling goes back to the first year Teams was official, way back in 2010, when Kevin and I won Nationals with a deck using Philistine Outpost.
So what about offensive cards that target "opponent" played pre-block?I attack with solo Daniel and play Wickedness Removed off of Hidden Treasures. Do I get to reveal from both opponents' decks then?

What about Ctb... If Ehud chooses an evil character from an opponent's territory is the owner of that evil character automatically blocking? Or can the block be passed to his partner?

The team then gets to choose which of the two players will block. In order to be given the choice to block, you must first have been attacked, which is what triggers cards like Fortress of Antonia.
I don't believe it is right to say that Ehud can choose who (as in a player) blocks but only which evil character blocks, because that's what the card literally says. Only the evil character never player. You choose who you attack NOT Ehud. He shouldn't function differently in teams. In TEAMS choosing the defender happens after you are attacked and all hero's abilities complete. So it goes like this if you attack with Ehud: You choose that you are attacking the TEAM or player by placing Ehud in battle --> Ehud's ability completes and the evil character is chosen to block--> After all abilities have completed the player, the team is being attacked and the members choose who will control the chosen EC to block.

You've effectively taken that choice away from the other team.
