ok so Ive gotten into this game, But I need clarification on some stuff. It says there is an errata/drscription on keywords and all character traits in the support page but i cant find it anywhere any one know where I can find it. Second are cards with the trait Armies Considered individuals and can they be affected by cards such as dragon kiss and poison chalice . There is probably more questions im gonna need to ask but for the love of thrones i cant remember them at this moment grrrr so these will have to do for now.
Newb questions on traits and individuality?

Not sure what you are referring to or looking for here. The part in the Core Set rules saying you can find information on "older" keywords on the Support page is a little misleading in that there aren't any older keywords that aren't explained in the rule book. Mostly, everything is in the FAQs. There is no separate "keyword list" document. Never has been. Also, there is no "description" or list of traits anywhere because you don't need one. Traits (like Lord, Dragon, Army, etc.) don't mean anything unless a specific card effect uses a trait to identify the cards it works with or on.

As mentioned above, traits don't mean anything on their own. You do not treat any card differently based on a trait (like "Army") alone. Traits are only used in card effects to limit or explain the cards that interact with that particular effect. So no trait gives a card any inherent "power" or other restriction to the card it is on.
So just because a card has the "Army" trait does not mean anything in terms of considering the card a "collective" or "individual" character and the trait certainly doesn't tell you anything about which cards can be attached to it. The attachment itself would have to say "Cannot be attached to Army characters." However, note that there is a high correlation between cards having the "Army" trait and the "No attachments" keyword. That keyword will stop you from putting any attachments on the card, but that really has nothing to do with it being an "Army."
