Hidden treasures us up.  Attack w/a prophet and play tears for a friend, then split altar then either visions of iddo the seer or wickedness removed. ;D

Green david from Kings + Hidden Treasures + unified Kingdom with at least one FBTN human in play.

It'd be negated; his ability of using enhancements w/his name in the scripture can be negated.

No, you can't unplay things, and Unified Kingdom is CBN on David, so it'd be there for good. :thumbup:

I think you may have tried to explain this in another post as well.

Note: this is hypothetical, but realistic:

Here's the situation.  You've got samson's sacrifice and christian suing in your hand.  Your opponent has an evil fortress and 3 human EC's in territory and you've got ibzan in yours.  The can't be prevented ls is in your land of bondage.  They attack with tribal elder banded to jake banded to CotH.  You block with, like, nebushasban.  It's your inish, so you play christian suing.  You side battle ibzan to the 3 banded heroes and play samson's sacrifice to get rid of their fortress, the 3 ec's in territory and you kill the heroes as well. ;D ftw

Very nice. Though a simple covenant being up kills it.

That's a neat idea and still very effective but it won't discard the cards in the original battle, only the side battle (current battle).

Samson's Sacrifice
Type: Hero Enh. • Brigade: Yellow • Ability: 8 / -1 • Class: None • Special Ability: If used by a judge, negate and discard one O.T. evil Fortress or occupied Site in play to discard all cards in battle and all human Evil Characters in opponent’s territory.

If the banded heroes were the ones in the side battle, though, that would discard all of your opponents' characters, fortress, etc. as he planned.

Your opponent could choose not to bring the banded characters in, and fight the side battle with only the first hero, and then there would be survivors to finish the original battle. I do agree that Samson's Sacrifice would not discard any heroes who were not brought into the side battle.

Christian suing another:

Yes.  You could choose a Hero from the main battle.

Correct, and they couldn't reband either. You'd kill one but the other two would remain.

Yes.  You could choose a Hero from the main battle.

I've never liked the double standard.  CTB sends the entire band out of battle, but CSA cannot bring the entire band into side battle.  CSA does specify "the", not "a".  But then until SS there weren't many reasons to bring the entire band into a side battle.

Be that as it may, you won't find me debating this in the Rulings Section anytime soon.  I'm still living in the euphoria of having Nats on the West coast.   ;)

Since you won't be debating, I'll just have a one-sided debate.  ;D

Choose the blocker undoes the original band of the first EC to enter battle, which is why the rest of the band goes away. CSA brings "the rescuing hero" into the side battle, which was the first one to enter battle. That band cannot happen a second time because instant abilities only activate once.
