Lydia (White 5/4) Lydia may use purple brigade enhancements. Lydia is protected from Captured.
The Winged Leopard (Orange/Black 9/10) Discard a Persian. Immune to white brigade. May band to a Greek.
Is Winged Leopard protected from AOC (as it would be played on a white hero?) I can see this going either way...
-
no because aocp is purple. not white. INE though.
-
He would be immune because Lydia is a white hero.
-
But is being immune to "white" the same as being "immune to a white hero"? Because if I read it literally, He is only immune to cards in the white brigade. So the real question is whether his immunity to white protects against cards played on a white hero (even if they're of another color).
-
When you are immune to white, you are immune to anything involving white. Because of the enhancement was played on a white hero, you are immune to it.
-
You cannot target something that is immune. Therefore, if Shoes of Peace (AU) is played on a Hero that is blocked by Prince of this World (Wa), then the opponent cannot target the immune character. If another valid target exists then it must be targeted instead; if there is no valid target, Shoes of Peace (AU) does nothing.
From the REG. In this example PotW is Immune to Lone Heroes not their enhancements, but he still cannot be targeted by Shoes of Peace. This is similar to this situation. Winged Leopard is protected from White, so anything played on a white hero regardless of its brigade is comeing from a white "source".
-
aaahhhh ok...
-
That's not exactly an adequate example, though. PotW is immune to heroes, not brigades. Immunity to a class of card is not the same as being immune to a type on a card. Winged Leopard uses different wording, so the PotW ruling can't be an automatic precedent for this question.
*Proposes elder confirmation either way*

Alex is correct. When you are immune to white, you are immune to all effects of white Heroes enhancements, and all enhancements used by white Heroes, regardless of brigade. Just as if you are immune to lone Heroes, you are immune to all effects of lone Heroes, and all enhancements played by lone Heroes.
