You get the 1 bonus power for winning the challenge unopposed regardless of challenge type. But unless it is unopposed, you only get power tokens for winning power challenges - assuming your opponent has power to take. Winning military and intrigue challenges give you other "prizes." They don't get you any closer to winning on their own, but they can (and do) clear the path to make it easier for you to get closer to winning down the line.

Unless a card (any card) is unique, you may have as many copies of it in play at the same time as you have copies in your deck to play. If the card (any card) is unique, extra copies can be used as duplicates. Note that "copy" is determined by cards having the same title - not having all text exactly the same. Two versions of a card with the same title are still considered "copies" of each other.

Thank you for the great answer!

I have another uestion,characters with renown claim power "on" themselves or on the house?

Power for renown is claimed by, and placed on, the character. You earn power faster, but it is much more vulnerable because if the character dies, the power is gone with it.

Totally. The advantage of Renown is that you can gain power very quickly and deny power to your opponent from lost power challenges. On the flip side, yes, you will loose that power if the Renown characters die.

A few renown characters is a good mix, but best not to rely on it I feel.
