For the Crab Stronghold:
Action: During a conflict, bow this stronghold – each defending character you control gets +1 and +1 until the end of the conflict.
Can I add characters to the conflict on defense, AND have them gain the benefit of the stronghold action? I ask due to a game last night vs. my son’s dragon deck. His stronghold specifies:
Action: During a conflict, bow this stronghold. Choose a participating character with 1 or more attachments on it – until the end of the conflict, that character gets +1 and +1 (+2 and +2 instead if it has 2 or more attachments on it).
S.N. Implies the bonus for any defending player that is either in or joins the confict due to its wording. MAS has writing that specifies directly a specific character. I know it’s apples to oranges here, but figured wording in most card games is pretty tight these days, so clarification is worth while.
