Scourge + Word of Misery interaction

By Felin, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Hi
while playing a quest we come across a strange situation :

During OL turn
Placement two (or more heroes) are adjacent to the scourge, all heroes have full health and fatigue equal to their stamina
Word of Misery was played at the begining of OL turn.

what do you think will happen ?

as a reminder
Scourge : " Each time a hero adjacent to the Scourge suffers 1 or more Fatigue from an effect other than this, choose another hero to suffer 1 Fatigue. "

Word of Misery : "Play this card at the start of your turn. During this turn, each time a hero suffers any [Heart], he also suffers 1 [Fatigue] in addition to the [Heart] suffered."


we have arrived to a loop that ends only with the death of all heroes but one ... is this correct or something escaped us ?



You are incorrect. The scourge's ability cannot trigger off itself (and neither can word of misery). They can work together once, but there is no loop.

Our thinking

A/ The first damage was from outside source, an attack.

B/ This triggered WoM

C/ Which in turn triggers Scourge

Scourge redirect a Fatigue to another hero which becomes a damage

Go to B.

Let me dig up an email for you. I'm in the air this morning so it may be a bit.

EDIT: Found a topic with link to the uFAQ.
