Hi! New to Malifaux, and after going over the FAQs and discussion here there are a few things I'm still not clear on:
Immune to Influence states "This model is immune to Wp Duels when it is the defender."
From my reading of the rules, it appears that a model is only the "defender" in a duel when it is being acted on in an opposed duel - such as the Attack Duel from Candy's Wail.
So Immune to Influence would not grant immunity to any simple Wp Duels that the ItI model would be called on to make, such as those required by Terrifying (a simple duel against the Terrifying value) or using Wp for a Resist Duel (a simple duel against the caster's Casting Total from the simple Casting Duel).
But here and elsewhere, I've seen people refer to ItI models as immune to any spell that uses Wp as the Resist stat, while still not immune to other effects that require them to make a simple Wp Duel (again, like Terrifying).
Is this correct? It does not make any sense given how ItI and the rules for Duels are written.
