Grapnel-Harpoons

By Taiowaa, in Rules

Regarding Vital Assets and the new Grapnel-Harpoon, i'd like a little clarification:

Scale(from the rules reference):

When a unit with the scale keyword performs a move action, it may either perform a free clamber action before performing that move or perform a free clamber action after performing that move

Grapnel-Harpoon:

Card Action icon Until the end of your activation, you gain Scale

(You ignore the effects of difficult terrain and do not suffer wounds while clambering. After you perform a move actions, you may perform a free clamber action.)

So is the Harpoon-scale a different version because you can only clamber after and not before a move action?

The RRG always overrules reminder text (the italicized text that usually follows a keyword on a card). Reminder text is only there as a convenience for the players. Always reference the RRG for the full rule.

In summary, there are not different versions of a given keyword. All instances are the same.
