Clarification regarding armor and damage reduction.


Rules Questions and Gameplay Discussion


Magic Padded Armor reads -

"Discard this card to reduce Combat damage dealt to you before or after you act by 2"

Ok so for that power, quite simply, I can play it before or after I act. (yes i know there are other powers on the card)

Hide Armor reads -

"Recharge this card to reduce cold or comabt damage dealt to you by 1"

What i want to know is could i play hide armor to reduce damage in the before and after i act step.....doesnt say it cant but it doesnt say it can wither wheras the magic padded armor specifically states it for its first power.

thanks


Or does it come down to the key point of "if a card doesnt specify when it can be played it usually can be played anytime".....obviously to reduce damage.


Since there's no restriction, you can play it whenever you're receiving Cold or Combat damage.


Absolutely.

Note that you could in the same encounter play
- One Hide or Magic Padded Armor to reduce combat damage before you act
- Another Hide Armor to reduce combat damage you take from the main check
- Then another Hide or Magic Padded Armor to reduce combat damage after you act


Thankyou dudes!
