We demand an official FAQ!

By costolaz, in Talisman

..please :-)
many talisman players around the world are enjoying the revamped 4th edition and the brand new expansion.. but, as any talisman player know, sometimes happens to find doubt about rules, weird combination of event/card, or suspect of misprint.
We could use a Faq section, or a sticked moderated post..

TY for this great game!

A FAQ is coming... but not just yet. Please be patient happy.gif

I wouldn't be so bold as to demand it, but we had an interesting rules question today.

Can a Genie cast a spell during a "Destroy Magic" effect?

The Genie specifically is the caster of the spells, and when referring to the origin, it says treat "as if the character had cast the spell." The peculiar nature of the present tense followed by past tense says that the genie casts it, then that it's treated as though it was cast by the person, creating a semi-paradoxical situation.

The only reason it might work is that the Genie is not a character, and the destroy magic spell specifically says that only characters cannot cast spells.

Also, if one has six objects, and two of them are the secret pouch and an object inside it, and the destroy magic spell is cast, what happens?

Can objects be moved out from the pouch and another item moved in?

Hehe, I think they (FFG) outanticipated you on this, Concealed Pouch is "only" an Object in this version. I spotted that during a recent game.

Also, I've so far allowed moving objects to and from pouch. It's Concealed Pouch, not Sealed, Never Ever to be Opened Again Pouch partido_risa.gif !
