Great news from Caleb ! I asked FFG about vomit+horde and mage of loec and here is the answer :

"Hi Cyrille,
Both of these questions will be addressed in our upcoming FAQ due out the middle of this month.
The answers you can expect in that FAQ will be something close to:
1. No. The units must be on Unending Horde when its ability is triggered.
2. The wording of Mage of Loec has been changed to: "Action: Discard a quest from hand or turn this unit into a development to cancel a just triggered action."
Cheers,
Caleb"

Hello FFG & DEVs! Hello Caleb!

Thank You so much for a quick FAQ with many important changes - good work!

lets see whats new in the FAQ 1.9!

The Unending Horde (errata)
Should read: “Action: Spend X
resources to put all ORC units attached
to this card when this Action was
triggered into play in your battlefield…”

Temple of Ulric (errata)
Should read: “Action: Move all
resource tokens and questing units
from the target quest to the new quest
(limit once per turn.)”

Mage of Loec (errata)
Should read: “Action: Discard a quest
from hand or turn this unit into a
development to cancel an Action just
triggered.”

Hit Points vs Remaining Hit Points (v1.9)
The term “hit points” refers to the printed hit point value on a unit, plus or minus any modifiers. Remaining hit points equals the hit point value of a unit minus the number of damage on that unit.

Attacks made outside of the Battlefield Phase (v1.9)
When a card effect allows a player to make an attack outside of the battlefield phase, that attack must follow all of the steps of the battlefield phase. For example: Wolves of the North (CC 32) reads: “Action: During your quest phase, the unit questing on this card can initiate a single attack against a single zone controlled by an opponent.” When a player initiates an attack using this action, he must follow each step of the battlefield phase.

Phase 5. End of the Turn
The turn ends. (See E under Detailed Timing Structure on page 14.)
The other player is now the active player. Proceed to beginning of the next turn.

Q: How does the card Gathering the Winds (BQ 10) work? If I use it to play a Spell, when does the Spell resolve and can my opponent cancel it? Can I play more than one Spell with it?
A: The Spell is played when the resolution of the action chain reaches the spot where Gathering the Winds was triggered. The played Spell cannot be canceled or responded to. It will be resolved and then discarded if it is a tactic. After the Spell is resolved the “then” effect on Gathering the Winds triggers, and it is sacrificed.

Q: Can I move a card from the zone it is in to the same zone?
A: No. In order to move a card, it must end the move in a different zone than it began.

Q: Can the Forced effect on Hidden Sorceress (BQ 17) interrupt the Action on
Snotling Invasion (BQ 38)?

A: Yes. The Forced effect on Hidden Sorceress interrupts the “Action” on Snotling Invasion at the sentence break.

Q: What happens if I play Judgement of Loec (LE 26) on a corrupted unit?
A: The corrupted unit becomes a corrupted development. Furthermore, if Judgement of Loec is removed from a corrupted development, it reverts back to a corrupted unit status.

Q: Does the ability on War Boar (BQ 47) affect its controller’s quests as well?
A: Yes. The War Boar’s ability affects all quests in play, including its controller’s.

I have 1 question left - I understandand that returning to hand Gathering the Winds with Arcane Power as the last resolved spell AND playing attachment-spells during opponent's turn is totally legal and You want to see such play on tournaments to see "what happens" and what "meta domination" will be, right?

best wishes

TEO

and second "unsolved issue" - should we play Reckless Engineer's ability as - sacrifice X developments to put into play X supports with any cost from top of the deck? works pretty well with order in chaos tactic responded to Engineer's action after sacrifice developed supports - is that legal?

Dear FFG, Devs and Caleb

Please clear out little more Gahtering the Winds issues (i.e. playing spell-supports during opponent's turn) and Reckless Engineer ability.

as I said before, HE starts to win more and more tournaments in Poland, some new examples:

How many tournaments did they win in the last 10 tournaments? 3?

Do you know if all these decks are using AP combo?

Anyway it's great to see HE on podium.

tournament to tournament is not equal ;-) also I am not counting second places :-P linked tournaments are in my opinion important with HE played by very good players, but not all of them used arcane power and/or gathering the winds, they are rather many different builds than one imba decklist, thats shows how many power HE have now ;-) in last 10 tournaments in Poland, HE were 4 times 1st and 2 times 2nd, and they wins rather bigger competitions with better players

Thank you to let us know about meta in Poland it's very interesting
