Hello,id like to take the time to thank you for ur patience and promotion of a community. I searched around a bit for the answers to my questions ,but jsut to be sure ,i m posting this.

1) If a The Red wedding plot card is revealed and there's only 1lady/lord , the rest of the effect is not triggered right?

2)Cards such as Kingswood trail and Smuggler's cove are usable only in offence right? In the case of smuggler's i mean for instance , an attacker with stealth will bypass the defending peep,since attackers are chosen first and smuggler's needs a participating character right?

3)If someone has a claim value of 0,can he initiate challenges (for unopposed) , or play cards "do x instead of normal claim". One way of thinking says that since he doesnt have a claim value, he cant play. The more closer approach says his claim value is 0,so he has the right to exchange his claim,even tho its 0.

4) lord of light protect us cancels ballerions responce and if the baratheon player has 3 ashai he returns balerion to his owners hand. Correct?

Thank you for your time and sorry for troubling you,jsut new to the game and faq doesnt really cover my comprehension of the timing issues.

Overall, your understanding of the timing structure is quite good.

1) If a The Red wedding plot card is revealed and there's only 1lady/lord , the rest of the effect is not triggered right?

Correct.

2)Cards such as Kingswood trail and Smuggler's cove are usable only in offence right? In the case of smuggler's i mean for instance , an attacker with stealth will bypass the defending peep,since attackers are chosen first and smuggler's needs a participating character right?

So… yes and no. You have the timing exactly right. Smuggler's cove can only be used on participating characters, and therefore the "stealth" aspect of it is only useful for that power challenge on offence. But since the charcter retains stealth (and the strength) for the rest of the phase, it will make him immune to stealth defensively when your opponent later attacks.

3)If someone has a claim value of 0,can he initiate challenges (for unopposed) , or play cards "do x instead of normal claim". One way of thinking says that since he doesnt have a claim value, he cant play. The more closer approach says his claim value is 0,so he has the right to exchange his claim,even tho its 0.

That's the correct interpretation. Claim substitutes (eg Pyatt Pree) still work even if your claim value is 0, and you can definitely declare challenges (and win challenges, with everything that entails) with claim 0.

4) lord of light protect us cancels ballerions responce and if the baratheon player has 3 ashai he returns balerion to his owners hand. Correct?

Yup. Not sure why you ask. Balerion's Response is clearly triggered by him coming in to play (at which point he is in play), and it's a character ability
The timign would be

Action: Play Balerion
(No Save Cancel Responsees)
Action is resolved: Balerion enters play
(Passive Effects trigger)
(Responses): Trigger Balerion
(Save/Cancel responses) - Play Lord of Light, Protect Us, cancelling Balerion's response.

thank you very much, its jsut that im not SURE of things yet, and wanted confirmation. thank you for your time.
