Martell Vs. Tyrell - Specific Cards

By ThunderCloud, in A Game of Thrones: The Board Game

So here's a question we couldn't quite figure out.

Player 1 was lower on the King's Court track and played a Doran Martell Card in the East Summer Sea with support +1 in the Port in Sunspear with 2 ships. Initial strength of 3 ships in South Sea borrowing 3 strength from Port total of 6 (+1 if using the Valyrian Blade). Player 2 was higher on King's Court track and played Loras Tyrell Card on a March +1 fighting with Support from West Summer Sea with a combined total of 6.

Player 1 has the Valyrian Blade.

Thus: Player 1 removed Player 2 to the bottom of the King's Court Track dropping him to ZERO stars. What is the immediate affect? Is there an immediate affect? Does this drop on the King's Court mean Player 2 is unable to play the text ability of the Loras Tyrell card because it's from a March +1 order?

ThunderCloud,

I'm going to use the logic we employ with Arkham Horror , for which I'm a regular conributor...as the Orders are placed firt and then resolved, a move up-or-down the King's Court Track will NOT have an immediate effect, as you can't change actions already in motion. The effect will take place next turn.

Cheers,

Joe

That is correct, Joe. This is one of the questions within the FAQ.

Q: Does the player being affected by Doran

Martell’s House card (moving him to the last position
of the King’s Court track) lose any Special Order
tokens that are already on the board?
A: No.

Thanks, mungkei! I didn't even see the FAQ :lol:

Note that when you use Doran Martell in the situation when your enemy got Valerian Blade Sword token and you are the 2nd place on the Fieldoms Influence track, you can take away the Valerian Blade token and use it immediately.

Thanks dancemachine, I was gonna ask about Doran Vs. Valyrian Blade as a second part to this question. Excellent!
