Daniel Boone

Page history last edited by MindBomber 17 years, 1 month ago

Boone was a trailblazer and soldier, politician and pioneer. His lifetime was one of controversy and legend, and these tend to blend with history to create the archetypical frontiersman.

From the QCT

Can you explain just how weaponless weapon attacks work? Specifically, I am referring to Gaiseric and Daniel Boone, who have similar abilities that create weaponless attacks with weapons.

To what degree do these count as weapon attacks? Does Baba Yaga stop them? Boone says it counts as a weapon attack, but doesn't say it counts as an attack with a weapon, so is it in essence a "weaponless weapon attack," getting around Baba Yaga's restriction?

•These abilities do work slightly differently, and you are correct in your readings of these cards.

•When Gaiseric uses his ability, he is not making a basic attack, and all abilities that key off of weapon attacks work as normal when possible. Obviously, we cannot discard the attacking weapon, or reference its grid or handedness, since these values do not exist. Any ability requiring a specific value for any of these traits will fail.

•Daniel Boone can choose to make a basic attack (which will not be affected by Baba Yaga) and then change it's property once the attack has begun (which is too late for the attack to be prevented). Similarly, there is no attacking weapon, so the abilities that reference values on that weapon work as they do for Gaiseric.

 

History in Brief

Anachronism Package Blurb

"Born in November 1734 to a Quaker family in Birdsboro, Pennsylvania, Daniel Boone grew to become one of the foremost trailblazers and explorers of his day. At ten years of age, he was sent to tend his family’s cattle herd, though he enjoyed hunting and hiking through the nearby woods far more. Boone served with the British in the French and Indian War. Narrowly escaping the conflict with his life, he became a scout, and was instrumental in early explorations of Kentucky and Tennessee. Twice hostile local tribes captured him, but twice he escaped. He is perhaps best remembered for his work in clearing the Wilderness Road and the establishment of Boonesborough. He died in Marthasville, Missouri, in September 1820.

 

Use Daniel Boone, trailblazer and explorer, to relentlessly carve a path towards victory in the Anachronism arena."
