Wildfire Assault and Duplicates.

By Kingbrit, in 2. AGoT Rules Discussion

Firstly apologies if this is a stupidly obvious question but a friend and I are fairly new to the game but had a situation the other day whereby he played wildfire assault. I had about 7 characters in play so chose my three to survive and killed the rest.

Now my question lies around the fact that one of my elected characters to save was a unique with a duplicate on it. He argued that the dupe should die also however I argued as it is the same character it shouldn't. Can anyone clarify if I was ok to keep my duplicate in play on the saved character or should it have died.

Thanks in advance!

The duplicate isn't a character, so it's not affected (in any way) by Wildfire Assault.

What you did was pick (up to) three characters that *wouldn't* die. Every other character of yours died, and if they'd had a duplicate, it couldn't have been used to save them because of the "cannot be saved" in Wildfire assault's effect.

However, the three remaining characters can have as many duplicates as you like, none of which need to be spent to keep the characters alive.

Thought so. Thanks. :)
