OFFICIAL ANSWERS about "Ambush" and Duel Quests

By mwewth, in Runewars

1. About the Tactics card "Ambush":

1.1) May I use it when my hero moves into an area containing another friendly hero and an enemy hero?(the area contain one of my heroes and a hero(my hero) moves into the area)

Ans: You can only use this card when an ENEMY hero moves into your hero's area.

1.2) If I use this card in a Quest Phase and the enemy hero survive, can he then move to other areas, attempt a Quest, or start another duel?

Ans: No. A hero can only duel OR attempt a quest once during the Quest Phase.

This card in essence lets you stop an enemy hero from doing anything else this phase.

1.3) If the hero, Sir Valadir uses his special ability(train and then move 1 area) and moves into an area containing my hero, may I use this card to force him to duel?

Ans: Yes you may do this (assuming that Sir Valadir is an enemy hero).

2. In "Duel" Quests, if both the neutral unit and my hero are defeated in the duel, do I complete the quest?(may I receive reward?)

Ans: You would receive the reward, and then the hero would be defeated.

Great, I'll add these to my list :) #2 is kind of strange; I wouldn't have thought you'd receive the reward if your hero dies in the process.

if you think about it, the rewards was a treasure that the neutral monster was holding or protecting. If a hero comes and kills that beastman, but dies in the process, that treasure would now lie unclaimed and unprotected.

True. And after re-reading the rules regarding duel quests, the ruling is consistent with what's written there (as they are handled differently than other quests).

Hey sigma zero, could you link to that list? I'm not sure if i have all the rulings. (I got the game last week)

That page will take you to the boardgamegeek place where I upload the file; when I do future uploads, they will be shown there also.

The next version will be version 5. I think I'll probably upload it in the next week or so, I just want to get a few more questions added to it that I'm waiting on.

Thanks man. If you ever come to utah, drinks are on me.

What part of Utah? We go out there a few times a year to visit my wife's family! Perhaps one of these visits we could get together for a game or two!

I live in provo and salt lake.

Let me know. We'll set up something. [email protected]
