Assussanni 528 Posted December 4, 2018 On my first replay of Curtain Call, the following situation came up. Act is 2a. The Man in the Pallid Mask had been dealt two damage previously and a successful fight action is performed against him. The Act advances to 2b which states that "Instead of discarding [him], move him to the Lobby." Do the two damage tokens stay on him or are they discarded?

Buhallin 4,563 Posted December 5, 2018 Tokens are removed when a card leaves play. Moving him instead of discarding means he never leaves play, so everything stays on him. Seems like a timing loophole, but it wouldn't just be the two - all the damage tokens would stay on him, so he'd immediately be re-defeated. Not terribly hard to figure out what you're supposed to do with this one though. 1 1 Assussanni and rsdockery reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berethrof 15 Posted December 5, 2018 Are you sure it’s “discarding” and not “defeating”? The intent I think it’s to sort of “reset” the Man’s status except now you have to go to a new location and face the hazard from the agenda before leaving the previous location. So you have to fully “defeat” him twice, whether by investigation or combat damage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given the scenario resolutions for Chasing the Stranger I also assumed that the intention was that he re-spawns completely healed at the Lobby, but since the instruction is simply “move him to the Lobby” and doesn’t say anything about what happens to damage tokens on him I wanted to check I was playing correctly. 1 Soakman reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khudzlin 734 Posted December 5, 2018 I agree that Act 2b should specify that you remove tokens (not just damage tokens) from the Man before moving him. It can't work as written and the intent is pretty obvious. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
