Negative Threat

By wraith428, in The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game

Is there anything official from FFG on negative threat? Seen a lot of conversation on the forums but nothing concrete? The rules don't seem to say anything about it so has anyone heard from FFG?

I think there was something about clarifying it in the next FAQ.

But I think we can all agree it would makes no sense to have negative threat, as it would make no sense to have negative progress.

Ether there is a threat or there is no threat. But what would negative threat be.

We can´t count negative threat and scoring with negative threat seems storage too. There could be an infinite negative score this way.

What do I mean by " storage" ??

There is no need for any kind of FAQ on this. You should never assume that a nummber can be negative in a game unless the rules explictly state it.

You can't have negative will, just like a character can not have a negative attack, defense or willpower score.
