Maniacal_cackle Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Just wondering what abilities people find there are constant misconceptions about. No matter how many times you play it, people don't know how the ability actually works. For me it is Ambush - everyone thinks you can't use it when engaged, and are always caught by surprise when I use it in engagement. Bonus points if you can explain why this matters without checking the cards đ What other abilities do people find are often misunderstood? Maybe post about the ability and the wrong interpretation and we'll see if we can remember what the real text is without reading it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axelst Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 I find a lot of people don't know how sputtering exhaust works. Too many times have I had to tell people that I still have concealment even though they are within 1 inch of me. And their model also has concealment, so they get a negative to lure/obey/otherwise attack their own model. Also, before the errata everyone I met played Big Brain Brin's Calculate the Possibilities wrong and flipped the duel before discarding the cards. I'm convinced it was changed to its curent form solely because everyone was already playing it that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

touchdown Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Similar to ambush, took me a while to realize the marker removal on appraise is a cost so it happens regardless of the flip. So Prospectors can always remove a marker. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

regleant Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Flight. Since Flight is a "place", I find people believe they can use Flight to leave combat. NOPE! You need Agile as well to use a Walk action, or similar ability for a Charge action. Sorry, Nephilim... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
