Hi everyone. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. First question. The warlock has his full compliment of spells 3 and he's on the crown of Command. He then cast "magic portal" which states the may move threw in stead of taking his normal move. Can he cast that and then not move just to burn the spell? It would seem to me that you would have to cast the Magic Portal spell if you were going to move. Therefor moving off the crown of Command.

You cannot cast a Magic Portal while at the Crown of Command, as this would constitute moving from there.

second question. you can avoid encountering a space if there is a face up adventure card already there. Does that negate some of the special spaces. Example: there is a sword on the dessert space. you enter it and pick up the sword, do you still lose a life if you don't have a water bottel or some other protection? If there is a helmut on the grave yard and your good, do you not lose a life if you land there and take the helmut same if your in the chaple as an evil character. Or if there is a enemy card on the Eagle King or Lord of Darkness in the dungeon do you have to deal with the monster and not encounter the space?

If there are any cards on a space, they form an encounter for the space. The space instructions must also be followed. In the case of the Desert, you would lose a life before encountering the Sword. In the case of the Graveyard, you would encounter the Helmet before encountering the space instructions. In the case of the Eagle King or Lord of Darkness, you would encounter the Enemy before fighting the Eagle King or Lord of Darkness. If you do not defeat the Enemy, your turn immediately ends. On your next turn you would need to fight the Enemy again. If you keep failing to defeat the Enemy, you would need to flee from the Highlands or Dungeon, moving against the arrows!!!
