Hi,

I do not know if this has been asked before but wat happens if Player A
plays an Entrancement on Player's B War Ghoul.

Has player B the option to burn his War Ghoul before?

Cardtext: Ghoul with 5 life. 4 strength, 0 bleed.
When War Ghoul enters play, burn an ally or retainer you control. She
can enter combat with any ready vampire controlled by another Methuselah
as a (D) action. She may prevent 1 damage each round. Tap and burn War
Ghoul to burn any location; you cannot use this ability during combat.


If, what happens to Entrancement?

thanks

Andreas

Should work, and Entrancement should flunk, ie failed action cause of
lack of legal target. I even think you could tap a Neighborhood Watch
Commander to add to the insult :)

I would have ruled the reverse actually. Surely the War Ghoul isn't entering
or leaving play, just changing controllers, and therefore there is no window
to activate the 'burn ally or retainer' text a second time?

Doh, ignore me, you're obviously referring to 'tap to burn any location'.
Too little sleep, need more caffeine... :P

if you wouldn´t have been too lazy to start a quick search you would
have discovered this:

Heh.
Its funny that you criticized Andreas for being lazy, but you top-posted
your reply, _and_ left in the quote from the search noting how annoying that
is. Its the sort of thing that takes the teeth out of internet etiquitte
commentary...

In this case it愀 not really top-posting, because I was citing another
post and NOT top-posting to the actual post.

Just to be equally nit-picky :)

Well, in that case, you still failed to quote the relevant text you were
replying to... ;-)
