James, Son of Alphaeus

James, Son of Alphaeus (Di)
Type: Hero Char. • Brigade: Purple • Ability: 1 / 4 • Class: None • Special Ability: Negate special abilities on Evil Characters (and weapons) with toughness X or less. May band to Thaddeus. • Identifiers: NT Male Human, Disciple • Verse: Matthew 10:2-3 • Availability: Disciples booster packs ()  X = # of your good disciples in play

Does the (and weapons) mean any weapons in play with toughness x or less, or does it mean any weapons that are on the characters?

In other words my opponent has 5 disciples in play.  I have a 6/6 evil character with a 2/3 weapon.  So is the weapon negated because it is under 5 or does it still work because the character it is on is above 5?

I'm fairly certain it means weapons with toughness less than X.

So with 3 Disciples in play, a 3/4 weapon would not be negated.

Have you checked the REG?
Have you looked it up in ORCID?

Then my question is why is in parenthesis?  It makes my playgroup think that they have to be on a character with x or less to be negated.  That is what caused the confusion.

The parenthesis are to clarify that the grouping is [characters and weapons] of X or less, not [characters] and [weapons of X or less].
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

so would this negate good weapons as well?
This is the way Lackey gave it to me. All hail the power of Lackey!

Yes, although I doubt that would ever come up.

Ok, just to clarify, lets just say the 2/2 Warrior class Fallen Warrior has the 0/5 Warrior Class Goliath's Armor on.  My opponent has 3 Disciples in play.  Fallen Warrior is negated, but is Goliath's Armor?

No.

I didn't think so, but I wanted to make sure!

For one thing, Goliath's Armor is CBN anyway. But even if it wasn't, it could only be negated by James if X>5.
