Subject: [NetRep] Rulings Digest #69

In regards to untapping havens, Chad wrote that "You can play a
character at a haven, use a second haven card and leave the two
companies distinct. Neither needs to move as it's not a split." This
was not explicitly said, but I am assuming that you can only do this if
the character played at the haven is played in his own company? Thus, a
character played under Direct Influence or with a wizard under General
Influence cannot use a second haven card in this way, but would have to
actually "split" companies in order to use a second haven card?

*** Your assumption is correct.
--------
First, if one cannot take actions between the end of all m/h phases and
the site phase, and if a moving company is not at a site until the site
phase, why is this multiple use of Hall of Fire allowed to work?

*** CRF, Turn Sequence Rulings, Movement/Hazard Phase, General:
Companies at the same non-Haven/non-Darkhaven site must join at the end
of all movement/hazard phases, before the site phase starts. Companies
at the same Haven/Darkhaven site may join at this time.

Hall of Fire states that its effect occurs "immediately following [the
company's] movement/hazard phase." This means that its effect is the
first thing that occurs during that company's site phase. Since the
companies have already joined, per the CRF, the ruling is correct.

See Digest #67 for the ruling in question.
--------
I assume that my definition isn't actually correct at all, since it is
no longer true that a moving company is at its new site at the end of
all m/h phases?

*** Correct. No company is at a site until the site phase.

Re: We Have Come to Kill
Errata says it doesn't apply to Ringwraiths.
But apparently, you can bring in ANY OTHER character, it doesn't have to
have the site chosen as its home site, nor does the Ringwraith need to
be present.

Is this interpretation correct?

*** Yes, though a company needs to be at the site where you play We
Have Come to Kill.
--------
If you can do it at a site with no auto-attack during the site phase
that has no company, why couldn't you do it during the org?

*** You can't use We Have Come to Kill at a site with no auto-attack
during the site phase at a site that has no company.
--------
It was my understanding that if you had a non-moving company at one
site, and you were doing another moving company's m/h phase, you could
play We Have Come to Kill during that moving company's m/h phase to play
a character at the non-moving company's site. Is this correct, and if
not, what is the reasoning?

*** This is correct.
--------
Re: They Ride Together
Aside from the fact that proper English would be to say "You may bring
as many", rather than "any", am I correct in assuming that the
Ringwraiths brought in are in addition to the one character per turn limit?

*** Yes.
--------
But the maximum character limit for a company is 7 isn't it?

*** Yes, outside a (dark)haven.
--------
So he needs both a mode card AND Dwar Unleashed?

*** CRF, Card Errata and Rulings, Dwar Unleashed:
Dwar must already be in a mode to use this card.
