Pike Phalanx: Limited Response: After you declare Pike Phalanx as an attacker with at least one other character with a W crest, raise the claim on your revealed plot card by 1 until the end of the phase. (Limit 1 Limited Response per phase)
Horseback Archers: Challenges: During a M challenge, kneel 1 influence to put Horseback Archers into play from your hand, knelt, as an attacker or defender. Then, at the end of that phase, if Horseback Archers is in play, return it to it's owner's hand.
I just want to make sure this doesn't combo. Since Horseback Archers are not put into play "declared as an attacker" I wouldn't be able to declare Pike Phalanx as an attacker then jump HBA into play and trigger the PP response, right? This is assuming I can give HBA a W crest mid-challenge.
Pike Phalanx and "declared attackers"

at the same time the Phalanx is declared. So even if the Archers were "declared" as an attacker with their ability (which they are not), the timing for the Response wouldn't work.
Thanks ktom. ~Guess I can always just use Disgruntled Mercenaries with Pike Phalanx.
