Can the sudden reversal card burn any master several turns after the master card is played, or does it only work as a reaction to a master card as soon as it is put down. I have people trying to burn my locations with it after the location has been brought out, payed for, used a few times, contested, freed from being contested, used a few more times - then they finally get Sudden Reversal and say they can burn it - is this a legitamate use of the card, or is Sudden Reversal simply a way to block a master card from coming into play. Also, could someone explain to me how exactly three rounds of combat go by with no one playing a card - wouldn't someone have to press ? -tony

Ancient ruling said yes, burn a card in play. This was overturned 11/9/94. You may only play Sudden Reversal on a Master Card *as it is being played*. >Also, could someone explain to me how exactly three rounds of combat go >by with no one playing a card - wouldn't someone have to press ? Well, a trap supplies its own presses. Otherwise (for Undead Persistence and the like), you could use Hawgs, Mob Connections, and Vampiric special abilities (Appolonius gets 1 optional Press each combat) to get Presses without playing cards.
