A: Yes.

Q: Hidden Paths says that the fighter is considered to have made a Move action. Does this count towards triggering cards like Quick Thinker, Kunnin’ But Brutal, and March of the Dead?

A: The fighter gains a Move token but Hidden Paths is not a Move action (or, indeed, an action of any kind). This means that Quick Thinker and Kunnin’ But Brutal cannot be triggered by Hidden Paths (because there was no action to make the reaction to), and you cannot score Cover Ground from Hidden Paths (because it isn’t a Move action). However, as the fighter is considered to have made a Move action in that round, that fighter does count for March of the Dead when you check that in the end phase.

Q: If my fighter hasn’t made a Move action but has one or more Move tokens (e.g. if they were chosen by Transfixing Stare), can I still use Hidden Paths on them?

A: Yes.

Q: Can I play Inspiration Strikes on a fighter that is already Inspired?

A: Yes.

Q: Can my opponent drive my fighter back with an Attack action before I make the reaction on My Turn?

A: Yes. The reaction on My Turn happens after an Attack action, and if a fighter is driven back as part of an Attack action this happens during that Attack action.

Q: Can the damage my fighter suffers from using Daemonic Weapon trigger My Turn, and if so in what order is it resolved?

A: Yes. You would play My Turn after resolving the Daemonic Weapon Attack action.

Q: Can the damage my fighter suffers from Shattering Terrain while making a Charge action trigger My Turn, and if so how is the this resolved?

A: Yes. You would play My Turn after the Move action taken as part of the Charge action (this is when Shattering Terrain damages the fighter), resolve My Turn and then (assuming you still could) resolve the Attack action taken as part of the Charge action.

Q: Can the damage that a wizard suffers when there are two or more symbols in their casting roll trigger the reaction on My Turn?

A: If the spell they were attempting to cast was a spell Attack action, then yes. My Turn would be resolved after the spell is cast or after the spell fails.

Q: I play My Turn, and push my fighter one hex, preparing to take an Attack action as granted by the card. My opponent plays Mirror Move – does the push granted by Mirror Move occur before or after the attack from My Turn?

A: Before – it is a reaction to the push, and the push is completed before the Attack action.

Q: Can Ready for Action be used to perform a spell Attack action?

A: Yes

Current as of official Nightvault Designer's Commentary, June 2019

Q: If a fighter is taken out of action by Trap, does that happen before or after they are driven back?

A: After.

Q: When a fighter is driven back into a lethal hex, do they suffer the damage from the lethal hex before I can play Trap?

A: Yes.

Q: If a fighter is driven back by an Attack action that was not successful, and then Trap is played to deal damage to that fighter, is the Attack action considered to be successful?

A: No. The damage is dealt by the ploy, not the Attack action.

Q: I make an Attack action with my fighter, and after the dice are rolled it is determined that the Attack action is successful and will cause damage. My opponent plays Rebound as a reaction, but fails the roll so nothing happens. We continue to resolve the Attack action: my fighter deals the damage, and I choose to drive the target fighter back. Can I now play the Trap reaction?

A: Yes. The trigger for Trap is after the fighter is driven back, which is a different trigger to when the Attack action is determined to be successful or not.

Q: Can Trap and Pit Trap be triggered by the same Attack action?

A: Yes. Trap is a reaction that happens during an Attack action, and Pit Trap is a reaction that happens after an Attack action.

Q: Which reactions can be played in the same reaction window as Twist the Knife (thereby preventing the attacking player playing Twist the Knife)?

A: Rebound, No Retreat and the reaction on Unflinching Guardian (this is a complete list for cards published up to June 2019).

Q: When do I score the glory point from A Destiny to Meet?

A: At the end of the last action phase, before the third end phase.

Current as of official Nightvault Designer's Commentary, June 2019

Q: Can Soultrap still be used if the attacking player used Twist the Knife?

A: Yes. Twist the Knife is used when it is determined that the Attack action will succeed, to increase the amount of damage the Attack action deals. Soultrap is used when the fighter is taken out of action (so when the damage is dealt).

Q: Can Soultrap still be used if either player used Rebound?

A: Yes. Rebound is used when it is determined that the Attack action would succeed. Soultrap is used when the fighter is taken out of action (so when the damage is dealt).

Q: If an enemy fighter would be taken out of action by my fighter’s Attack action, but my opponent uses Soultrap or Last Chance so that they are not taken out of action, can I still drive that fighter back?

A: Yes

Q: If I play Last Chance or use the reaction on Tethered Spirit or Soultrap during an Attack action to save my fighter, is the Attack action successful?

A: No.

Q: If I’ve made a successful Attack action, but the enemy fighter is saved by Soultrap, meaning that my Attack action fails, what happens if that enemy fighter would then be driven back but is Trapped as described in the rules?

A: The Attack action becomes successful and damages that fighter (who will probably be quite dizzy by this point). This is because Soultrap is discarded after negating the damage when the Attack action was initially successful and has no further effect.

Q: Can any combination of the reactions on Last Chance, Last Lunge and Soultrap be made during the same Attack action?

A: No.

Q: If I play Last Chance or use the reaction on Tethered Spirit or Soultrap during an Attack action to save my fighter, is the Attack action successful?

A: No.

Current as of official Nightvault Designer's Commentary, June 2019

Q: Do Champion’s Fortitude and Trusted Defender have the same effect?

A: Yes. If a fighter has both upgrades, you can re-roll up to two defence dice in their defence rolls (but not the same dice twice).

Q: Which rolls does Trusted Defender affect?

A: Only defence rolls.
