Yup, they can always do whatever they are capable of doing until they've been checked.

EDIT: Oh, but the check is at the end of the wave. So at the end of the wave, he'll crumple, and his corpse won't be good for anything.

Okay, then the Knight will absorb enough damage to heal the Fighter back to full (if I'm interpreting that correctly. If not, absorb all the damage the Fighter just took).

For my actions, I'll:

Start by drawing a card! WOO!

I'm thinking of switching from round-sized posts to wave-sized posts. Good idea Y/N?

Good idea! As a spectator I hate having to go back to the round's original post to see what happened. It is confusing.

Khadath Trapper has 5 health, so I'll let him take this one. On my turn I'll draw a card and then probably put someone in front of Trapper.

heatwizard, what do you do? if your leader is in negatives at the end of the wave, your force is routed and you lose the first game of the match.

Heatwizard
Nov 6, 2009

Yeah, that's an issue. I was hoping to just shoot him for 10 this round and the next round, but it looks like there's a leak in that plan.

I think I'm content to just call it here; this game isn't really holding my interest like battlecon does.

Some thoughts.
[*] Your leader is kind of like your king in chess. They're the only way you can lose, so protect them if you can!

... Okay that's actually the only thought I have right now, whoops! Anybody else have any thoughts?
