Pair o' Cutlasses

Page history last edited by MindBomber 17 years, 2 months ago

Blackbeard famously went into battle without an inordinate amount of weapons; this included dual-wielding that old pirate standby, the cutlass.

From the FAQ

Set 6 Major Clarifications

Pair o' Cutlasses:

'At the start of each round, you may choose to have your attack rolls with this weapon this round gain +2. Otherwise, your defense rolls this round gain +1.'

 

The original text does not contain the phrase, "this round."

 

From the QCT

Take either weapon:

Cutlasses with a rival, or Pou Whenua.

If I use the ACTION ability to make an attack with either weapon, what happens if my opponent has Vlad's Armor?

Some people argue that the attack fizzles because the effect of the attack is nullified.

Others argue that the attack is already in progress and it is too late to stop and so the attack goes through as normal.

Pieptarul will not stop an attack from completing, even if that attack was created by a card ability. Reactionary card abilities that create attacks are also not stopped by this armor, unless they are like Sverd - Weapon cards that create attacks during other attacks by the same player.

Will Allt A'Bhonnaich prevent Baba Yaga's ability from working if the player who has Allt is using something like Pou Whenua, Pair o' Cutlasses, or any other cards that say you can spend actions to attack with them?

Baba Yaga prevents her opponent from attacking more than once - if the opponent would be using card abilities to make those attacks, then Baba Yaga is preventing her opponent from using those abilities. Therefore, Allt will stop Baba Yaga from preventing those abilities from being used.

•As usual, in a conflict between Allt and a card that attempts to prevent another ability, Allt wins.
