I just have the core set, but a couple of things have come up:

1) Several attachments refer to kneeling themselves. Would an attachment be knelt if the character (or location, I guess) that it was attached to was knelt? Ex. Nymeria is attached to Arya, who kneels to defend against a military challenge. The challenge, however, is lost. Can Nymeria be knelt to save Arya from satisfying the claim, or is she already knelt because Arya kneeled?

2) How exactly does Bran Stark work? Or more generally, what happens when you 'reveal a new plot card'? Does your initiative change? Do you get more (or potentially less) gold? Does your claim change? Do you apply the effects of the new plot instead of or in addition to the old one?

Thanks.

1) Characters and attachments kneel and stand independently of one another. In your example, you could save Arya with Nymeria, because although Arya is knelt, Nymeria is not.

2) Bran can be tricky. When you reveal a new plot card, you resolve any "when revealed" text on that card. You can only have one plot revealed at a time, so your old plot will go to your used pile at this time.

Your initiative changes, but since First Player is determined as soon as plots are revealed, this will likely not change anything. (There are a few cards that say "If your initiative is [blah] or lower, do [blorp]" and other such things.)

Finally, you count your income at the beginning of the Marshalling phase, so whatever gold value is on your revealed plot card at that time will be your income (modified by locations and whatnot).

Excellent, thank you.

Each play counts their marshalling income when they become the active player. In other words a Lannister player going second will not have any gold to play a card (ex: The Lion's Will) until he/she has become the active player.

Of course you're right - that was an oversight on my part.
