RULEBOOK

APPLYING DAMAGE AND

DEFEATING OBSTACLES EXAMPLES

Here are some more examples of how to apply damage and defeat

obstacles.

EXAMPLE 1. Chloe’s playing a Fighter, and her turn has come up.

She wants to defeat a blue obstacle facing another player—the Minotaur.

The Minotaur’s damage track is as shown at right:

Chloe has three cards in her hand: Command

Presence, Tower Shield, and Stealth, so she’ll

need some help.

First Chloe plays Command Presence and

chooses Brooklynn, who gets to draw a card

and then play a card. Brooklynn draws Cloud of

Daggers, which would help immensely, but it’s

far better as an Assist. Instead Brooklyn offers to

play Misty Step, but decides not to use its ability

to draw and discard since she likes her current

hand. Misty Step deals

damage, which

Chloe gets to use. Chloe then places Command

Presence and Stealth next to the Minotaur, and

Chloe places Misty Step there as well. But to

defeat the Minotaur, Chloe still needs another

blue damage from somewhere, as well as two other damage. Meg then

decides to play Bless as an Assist, and chooses blue damage, placing

that card next to the Minotaur. For the other two damage, Chloe’s Tower

Shield would work fine. However, if played as an Assist, it would stop an

encounter from attacking, and the party needs her to save that card to

stop the Stone Golem from hitting Meg next turn with its scary 3 Attack

Strength. So Ryana steps up and plays Javelin as an Assist, which deals

damage, placing it next to the Minotaur as well. Finally, Chloe

plays her Stealth. Now that everyone has finished playing cards and

applying any text effects, Chloe now deals damage.

The first level of the Minotaur’s damage track requires 4 damage of any

type, so Chloe clears it by using Command Presence’s

and taking

the

damage from both Misty Step and Javelin for a total of 4 damage

(the colors don’t matter). She places a clip over the

to show it’s been

cleared. Then she uses the remaining

damage from Misty Step to clear

the second level as well. The damage for the third level (another

) comes

from the Assist damage from Bless, leaving only the final level on the

Minotaur, which is cleared by the

from the Stealth card Chloe played.

While this defeats the Minotaur before it can attack, it did leave one point

of damage that couldn’t be assigned anywhere: the

from the Javelin.

Since she cannot split damage from a card between encounters, that extra

damage is simply lost. While they try hard not to let that happen, the party

is just fine with how that played out. They defeated the Minotaur before it

could attack, while ensuring that Chloe’s Tower Shield can stop another

encounter from attacking on a future turn. Now they’ll decide if they want

to use the Minotaur’s Vanquished effect or not.

Note that in the above situation, Chloe could’ve simply taken the

from the Javelin Assist and paired it with the

from Command

Presence to clear the first level, leaving the

from Misty Step as the

odd point of damage. However, there would still be a leftover point that

can’t be assigned.

EXAMPLE 2. Jeremy is playing a Half-Orc Fighter and has a big

hand of cards (he had three at the end of last turn, so drew two during

Replenish, and then purchased two): Expertise, Flaming Oil, Grapple,

Stealth, Glory, Grace, and Tower Shield.

He looks around the table, starting at his left and sees that Nick, their

Cleric, is stuck in the Moaning Chamber but has no other encounters facing

him. Meanwhile, Kristian as the Wizard doesn’t have any encounters facing

him (because the party all concentrated on them to save their Arcane

character). However, the last player in their game, Rod, their other Fighter

(he also has the Rogue as his secondary Class Type), was Stunned last turn.

What’s worse, he is also stuck in the Slaad Planar Portal and facing a Kobold

Pack and Cloaker. Finally, facing Jeremy is a Death Slaad. There’s some

seriously scary encounters out there, none of which have damage on them.

But Jeremy is sitting at 6 HP, and he’s a Half-Orc after all. And he does have

that mega hand of cards. Time for the big play!

During the Start Turn phase, Jeremy

takes his Class Type marker and places it on

Slaad Planar Portal to indicate he’s moved

into that Location. Now that Location’s

“start of turn” text effect is applied: they

make a Save for the encounter by revealing

the next Secondary Deck card. It’s blue,

so Slaad Planar Portal failed and doesn’t

summon another slaad (they bury the

revealed encounter), which is a really good thing, since Jeremy is

already facing a slaad.

Even though he moved into the Slaad Planar Portal, he’s still facing

that Death Slaad—changing his Location never changes what monsters

are facing him. But he is now also facing that Location (since his Class

Type marker is there). However, the Kobold Pack and Cloaker—and their

tokens—facing Rod, who is in that same Location, are not facing Jeremy.

Now it’s time to lay waste to some encounters in spectacular

fashion. He knows that Nick cannot help him with cards, even though

Nick probably has a Bless or a Magic Missile in his hand, both of

which can be used as Assists. Since they are both now in separate

Locations, Nick cannot play any Assists to affect Jeremy or his

encounters, and Jeremy cannot play any cards or effects to help Nick

or affect his encounters.
