I just want to be Perfectly clear you believe Damage from an attack is not an effect of the attack. You are not being serious i hope.
I am going to throw some things at you tell me how you think they work.
Df/Wp ( ) Safe In My Bed: After an Attack Action succeeds against this model, discard a card to make target friendly Nightmare within 3 suffer the effects of the Action instead as if it had been the target, including any Triggers.
5. Determine Success If the attacking model’s Duel Total equals or exceeds the defending model’s Duel Total and any TN (which may include required suits), then the Attacker has won the Duel and the Action succeeds. Apply results as applicable, which is often the Defender suffering damage or another ill effect.
Q: When do “After Succeeding” Triggers occur?
A: They occur after Step 5 of the Action sequence, so after applying the results of the Action.
Now dreamers trigger goes off first since he is the defender. making sure everyone understands that. so it goes off before any other triggers hence why it passes them off.
also if Damage is not an effect of an Attack action what is it?
