Hydra Spell + Energize, eventually 2x Energize

By Nemomon, in Talisman Rules Questions

Hydra Spell + Energize that happened to me in my previous game, 2x Energize now.

So, the question is... Let's say we are playing as Warlock. His Strength is equal to 2. So, once we are casting it, our Strength is doubled, so increased by 2. But then, what happens, if we will cast it for the second time? Due to wording, our Strength value is doubled, so in that given moment is is equal to 4, not 2, so after casting second Energize, our total Strength value is equal to 8, not 6, right?

in theory, you are right.

But i don't know if this is allowed..

But it is possible, yes

Let's assume that you can do it gui%C3%B1o.gif

But then how You would play, if that situation could happen to You? gui%C3%B1o.gif

I would probably do the same, because if you use the first energize, your value will be doubled. When you cast the second energize in the same turn, then the value will be increase from 4 to 8 !

But it's a rare possibility. You need to hold both energize cards in your hand, to make this work.

Looks like the FAQ abolished the concept of "no duplication of the same effect", so you're allowed to stack Two Energize Spells (or Energize + Hydra Spell).

I will do exactly as you said; double the Strength value twice. 2x2x2=8 happy.gif

Yes, but if we have all three cards in our hand gran_risa.gif

2x energize + hydra spell

very very rare...

2+ 2=4 doubling =8 + hydra spell= 16

I would bet that it will never happen.... happy.gif

You are semi right, but think. What happens, if the Warlock is casting Brainwave instead? His craft is equal to 5, so png.latex?%5B%285cdot%202%29cdot%202%5D% gran_risa.gif

EDIT: heh, this board with full of being incomplete, it also doesn't support LaTeX...
