So, I remember a topic where it was stated that Herod's Treachery doesn't affect the character's ability to play enhancements with High Places, but what about Rome?

Can I use Rome in conjunction with High Places to play any N.T. "place" enhancement (except orange) on my emperors?

High Places
Type: Fortress • Brigade: None • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: During your preparation and discard phases, you may play evil Enhancements that contain the word "place" in the special ability. If you capture a Hero in a territory, discard this card. • Identifiers: None • Verse: Numbers 33:52 • Availability: Thesaurus ex Preteritus booster packs ()

Rome
Type: Fortress • Brigade: Multicolor • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: Your emperors have first strike and may use N.T. Enhancements of any evil brigade except orange. • Identifiers: None • Verse: Romans 1:15 • Availability: Faith of Fathers (Set 10)

Ashdod lets your Philistines do similar.

Hey,

Why doesn't Herod's Treachery work with High Places?

I couldn't tell if that's what he's saying or not.  I see no reason it doesn't work too.

Herod’s Treachery
Type: Evil Enh. • Brigade: Multicolor • Ability: None • Class: Territory • Special Ability: Place on a Herod. That Herod may use evil Enhancements regardless of brigade. You may discard this card to force X Heroes to withdraw from battle.

Herod's Terachery doesn't only activate in battle though (See recent discussions on discarding it outside of battle) -Additionally, the 'Play other' ability is ongoing (See Lydia + Reach) Because all place enhancements are active outside of battle, similar to artifacts and fortress', the Herod can play any brigade off of High Places.
