Gotta say I just love this plot - melee or joust. Not flashy, but can really save your butt. Watched the end of a 3-player melee the other night (Core decks w/customized plot decks, relatively new players). Stark had tons of power, but a lot was on characters, so Bara's Mel was keeping Stark from the win.

Next round, Stark drops Snowed Under.
Bara doesn't see/remember it.
Standing Phase - bye, bye Mel.
Bara player shakes fist and curses profusely.
Stark player smiles and claims the win!

Not an auto-inlcude plot IMO, but always worth considering. Great way to keep a threat at bay for a round, shake off a pesky negative attachment from one of your own cards, trigger a "leave play" effect you like. etc.

This is a perfect card for a Greyjoy choke deck. When your oppenent is running short on golds, every gold spent (again) is like a knife in the back

Or if the player wants to keep the character for later uses, he/she won't attack with it. and that's what you want, to slow him/her until you can totally control the table, and he/she cant marshall a thing.

So if I play this plot do I also have to choose one of my characters/locations?

Yes. When you don't have to include yourself it says "each opponent" rather than "each player" (for instance in the case of Waste Their Time (QoD)).

Wow, ye, and I still remember the additional confusion we had when we started playing this game, with Fleeing to the Wall (Core) saying "Others" in bold text before the text. For too long did we think that its effect only applied for other players...

This plot will hit a House of Dreams location, correct? It doesn't have to be kneeling since it doesn't say one kneeling character or kneeling location.
