Jun 05 2019 02:38 PM by KrytenKoro Where is the flavor text from? Is this a separate printing?
Unspeakable Transformation
May 09 2019 11:10 AM by RichardPlunkett I believe it means *one* other character. I think/hope they would have written 'characters' if they meant every other character.
Unspeakable Transformation
May 07 2019 06:57 PM by KrytenKoro Possibly a stupid question, but is it any *one* character you control, or *every* character you control? And if so, is it the max per one card, or the sum of all of them?
Brain Transplant
May 07 2019 06:55 PM by KrytenKoro My understanding is that the "if able" means that so long as the card is going insane *if it can*, then you are sufficiently fulfilling the requirement. If it can't go insane, it's still "going insane if able".
Twisted Acropolis
Apr 22 2019 08:37 AM by RichardPlunkett heh, when I read your comment I (wrongly) thought you were referring to the illustrator being on drugs to produce this image - which I (again wrongly) thought was a little harsh given the flavor text. Now I see you are referring to the data entry. They have placed the flavor text in the 'Illustrator' field, instead of Julian Kok. Poor Julian.
Bone Sculptor
Apr 22 2019 08:30 AM by RichardPlunkett I suspect he was mis-entered as being in the core, then they noticed him missing and entered him again, then they noticed the core version and change it to the correct pack and now we have two listed in the pack.

I think this is right. From the FAQ, "Stories will resolve only if the active player has characters at that story." So if the active player does not commit characters to any stories, the Forced Response is not triggered.
Old Sea Dog
Feb 27 2019 04:33 AM by snarkherder I like this with Crescent Blade. It's like a budget Khopesh that does not wound your own characters.
The Cats of Ulthar
Feb 27 2019 12:35 AM by snarkherder
And with Marcus Jamburg, you could potentially create a quasi-endless Cats of Ulthar Zoog destruction loop. Way too bouncy for competitive play, but could be fun.
Neil's Curiosity Shop
Feb 12 2019 10:15 PM by KrytenKoro The "Kingsport's Haunted Houses" ad indicates that this card is meant to be able to copy the effects of the other Locations in that pack, which reference themselves. I think it's clear that self-references aren't meant to be an obstacle.
Tunnel Lurker
Feb 05 2019 04:00 PM by snarkherder
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!
Tunnel Lurker
Feb 02 2019 08:12 AM by RichardPlunkett I believe normal (framework action) Story commits generally happen all at once, not in sequence. A Forced Response that triggers after an event (most do) are higher priority than responses, but otherwise quite similar. So it would happen after resolving the framework action of committing everyone that you chose to commit.
Tunnel Lurker
Jan 31 2019 05:32 AM by snarkherder What happens if you commit Tunnel Lurker to a story, then another character? From my reading of the FAQ re actions, responses, forced responses, and disrupts, forced responses act more like disrupts than responses, so it shouldn't affect the characters committed afterwards, but that seems...wrong to me...
Experiment Subject #613b
Jan 28 2019 07:21 PM by KrytenKoro I feel like this is a reference to Stitch.
Pocket Telescope
Dec 30 2018 02:27 AM by Jamiejame911 The original CCG version is functionally the same and does have the "Attachment" keyword, but it doesn't say it needs to be attached to a character. You may think this was an oversight, except the next card in the set (Flare Gun) has the Attachment keyword and yet explictly states that it needs to "Attach to a character you control." The card before Pocket Telescope (Whateley's Diary) is also an Attachment, but like PT, doesn't demand that the card attach to a character. So, I think the original version didn't require this and is therefore a much, much better card. |

And I think if multiple characters, they would have written 'all other...' not 'any other...'.
