Thanks for the responses

And again a new question:

Insect Swarm
3 (T) © 6
[shub-Niggurath Character]
Monster. Creature.

Fast.
The cost for all players to play neutral cards is increased by 1.

Descendant of Eibon, Master of the Black Arts
3 © © (A) (I) 3 Transient
[Neutral Character]
Sorcerer.

Willpower. Fast.
Action: Discard 2 of your success tokens to put Descendant of Eibon into play from your hand or into your hand from your discard pile. At the end of the phase, if he is still in play from this effect, return Descendant of Eibon to your hand.

Does the Insect Swarm raises the action costs too? So if I have 2 Insects Swarms in play and my opponent wants to play Descendant, does he need to sacrifice 4 success tokens?

Insect swarm is working only for cards you are playing (ie cards you are playing from your hand by paying their normal cost, see faq).

For the descendant you are paying a cost (discarding 2 success token) to put into play the Descendant (you are not playing it in this case). So, no the insects have no effects.

Okay thanks, thought so but wasn't sure.

A question about the "FAST" skill.

Does it stack? Like when I have two characters commited to a story with "Fast" and my opponent has one "Fast" character. Do I get the advantage because I have it two times or is it simply neutralized and no one has "Fast"?

"When resolving a story, the player who controls the most Fast characters
committed to that story wins all ties during icon struggles
and when determining success at that story. Note, however, that a
tie of zero is still even and has no winner. If the players also have
an equal number of Fast characters at that story, ties are resolved as
normal, with no effect." (p. 11)

2 Fast beats 1 Fast .

Thanks, I've searched the FAQ but forgot to check the manual

I got another one:

Uneasy Translator
2 (A) 2
[Miskatonic University Character]
Faculty.

Action: Exhaust Uneasy Translator to choose a character. That character gains +2 skill for each character in play from a different faction from it.

What happens, when I choose a neutral character, since neutrals actually don't count as a faction.

But, it doesn't stack on a single character. If you have a Fast character and through some action or attachment it gains Fast, this is still a single character with Fast.

Ahzrab said:

I would resolve it as the Uneasy Translator gets + 2 skill for each character that actually has a faction. I guess my question would be whether or not if you chose a character faction if neutral characters would also add 2 skill?

All non-neutral cards will have a faction different from it so it would get +2 for each card with any actual faction.
