Lethal Counterattack

By Seanboy21, in 2. AGoT Rules Discussion

Hi y'all!

The Lethal Counterattack Event card reads:

During a Military challenge, kneel 2 of your House Stark characters to kill all attacking characters.

Does this mean that, if for example, a House Targaryen military challenge with characters with a total of 7 STR challenges me (with my total STR of 4) and I kneel two of my Stark characters, do I WIN the challenge since as the event card states that I kill all attacking characters??

Thanks as usual!

Yes. Well, provided that a) the Targ player did not save any of those characters (as characters can still be saved) or b) the remaining characters after any saves equate to less than your 4 STR. But, in most cases, the answer is Yes.

Oh I should add after rereading your post... that's assuming you actually have 4 STR of characters PARTICIPATING in the challenge BEFORE you knelt two characters to pay for Lethal Counterattack's effect.

YES!!! Thanks doulos2k!!
