I've been told that there were no Player Actions in the Epic Phase. You can only attack, defend and play Responses. If this is the case, how do you explain The Bastard of Godsgrace? Text: "Any phase: Kneel The Bastard of Godsgrace to give a Martell character +2 STR until the end of the phase. If you trigger this effect during the epic phase, draw a card."

Hmm, I am not sure about the action window structure within the Epic Phase, but surely the challenges that are declared within it follow the same structure as challenges declared during the Challenges Phase and thus there are Player Action Windows after attackers and defenders are declared. You could use this ability during those windows.

You are a bit misinformed.

There are Player Actions in the Epic Phase. But there are no pre-challenge (or post-challenge) Player Actions. Kind of like how there are no Player Actions before counting dominance or standing cards in the Dominance and Standing phases.

You can still get the two Player Action Windows that come as part of the typical challenge duration, though.
