Back on topic with this Lost Soul...

If it is already in play and the Hopper Lost Soul is then drawn, does it go in the owner's Land of Bondage or the opponent's?

Type: Lost Soul • Brigade: None • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: When drawn, place this Lost Soul in one opponent's Land of Bondage. Does not count toward Lost Soul deck building requirements. • Errata: (Treat the last sentence of the special ability as an identifier.) • Identifiers: None • Verse: II Chronicles 28:13 • Availability: Kings booster packs (Rare)

That was my thought, but I wanted to make sure - thanks!

You get to choose the order you play them, so I don't see how this would matter... Am I missing something?

No, you cannot play enhancements simultaneously.  The only cards you can play simultaneously are SOG and NJ because of the wording of NJ.

So you're saying Prof Alstad's post is incorrect? I hope not. I like what it can bring

Which part of my post would you say Kevin thinks is incorrect? I see no contradiction.

Simultaneous has been defined in Redemption terms as "within a few milliseconds" (or maybe up to half a second on RTS). Basically enough time for your NJ to activate simultaneously with your SoG, and not enough time for your opponent to react with his own NJ. So even if SoG instantaneously rescued and was discarded before NJ activated (which I suppose you could argue, possibly successfully to some judges), NJ would still be played simultaneously with the SoG you just played, since it activated within a few milliseconds of your SoG.

Nowhere in your post do you seem to indicate that the reason they're allowed to be played simultaneously is due to the wording on NJ. You just seem to indicate that the reason is due to the fact they're played closely together. So sorry, I worded that poorly. Not exactly a disgreement, just an alternate reason.

Then again, I might just be trying to misconstrue your post beings I want it to be played differently.
