We had a situation in our game yesterday where I used the Encounter part of the W1-LE crew to perform a market action during the Encounter phase. Upon purchasing an item, the next card revealed moved the nearest patrol to my space. As I had negative reputation with them I should have then been forced to Encounter the patrol for a fight, however as you are only permitted to have 1 Encounter (which I had substituted for a crew ability) I argued the case that I would not have to fight them as they were moved as part of another Encounter.
We checked at length for any suggestions of out-of-phase patrol movement, and there was no exception or clarification for this situation. To avoid an afternoon of argument I had a fight with the patrol and killed it anyway, but my understanding is that the fight should not have happened. There is currently no FAQ to clarify this specific situation, so I thought I should ask here in case anyone has spotted something in the manual that I missed.
Thanks
