And, by all means, hand out some errata if you really feel the need to.

Thank you for clearing up UW, Bryon.   :)


Quote from: REG
The Silver Trumpets
Type: Artifact • Brigade: None • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: When your Priest has initiative during a rescue attempt, you may band a human O.T. Hero from your territory into battle or interrupt the battle and return your Heroes in battle to hand. May be used twice. • Identifiers: OT, Tabernacle Item, Temple Item • Verse: Numbers 10:2

"When your Priest has initiative during a rescue attempt," is an ongoing, triggered ability.  When does it trigger?  Each time an initiative check is performed.  Therefore, TST could be used twice during the same battle phase.  "May be used twice" is a triggered, instant ability.  Because the rules for artifact activation explicity state that limited use artifacts must be discarded after being "used up", it doesn't matter if the artifact is in play or out of play, the artifact gets discarded when the trigger is met.

What are your thoughts on The Silver Trumpets?

"If a human hero is in battle, you may discard this card to capture that hero." 

This way it works just like Go into Captivity, Madness, Unknown Nation, etc.  "If a human hero is in battle" tells you when you can use it, and "you may discard this card to capture the hero" keeps y'all from using brutal combos that make the young'ns (and old'ns) cry.
I agree that this is the best idea, whatever my opinion is worth. :P

But anyway, back on the original topic which has mostly been forgotten, I just want to make absolutely sure that the Holy of Holies + Queen Maachah combo works?
