Title: Rule Questions
Post by: yirgogo on December 26, 2013, 07:47:11 PM

1. I have heard that A card cannot target a demon or angel unless it specifies that. What are the rulings on this?

2. Is Golden Cherubim a Tabernacle Artifact? It says only Temple Artifact on it, but could it be placed in a tabernacle, and would Aaron protect it?

1. Not true, necessarily.  They can be targeted just like any other cards, they just have to meet the criteria.  "Evil card" or "evil character" both work for demons, as do "good card" or "hero" for angels.  However, if they target "humans" specifically, then the card does not target angels or demons.  The same is true if a particular gender is targeted, and that gender is not represented by the card (yes, almost all angels and demons are either male or female, and almost all are male for reference).

Basically, does the card fit the description of the target and is in the area able to be targeted?  Then it is targetable.  There is no special case just for angels or demons.

2. It is a temple artifact, and only a temple artifact.  It can currently go in any temple.  You may not place it in the Tabernacle.

thanks,
Also, What happens if Ehud choses a person to block, Do they enter battle immediately, or do they enter after all the heroes are entered?

They enter immediately. But heroes can still be banded in by special abilities.

If Ehud comes in at the same time as a bunch of other Heroes via a mass banding card (like Deborah's Directive or Siege) then his ability must activate after all other non-choose the blocker abilities (since CtB abilities occur last in the order of operations). So if DD is played, then all other Heroes abilities activate, then when they are done, Ehud's ability activates to choose the blocker. Once he does that, any ECs currently in battle leave battle, and the new EC enters battle.

Fixed that to what I assume is what you meant. :P
