On the Hawg card, it says that you get one press each turn. Ok, I assume this is an optional press? Also the fact that it is each turn seems to be a little to powerful for a 0 cost piece of equipment. So does it mean each combat or each turn of combat that you get the press? Each turn of combat is just way to powerful if you ask me. Just my 2 cents and a couple of questions. Thanks. -- ______________________________________ \ From the Desk of : Beejay Johnson \ \ umjo...@CC.UManitoba.CA \ --------------------------------------

Each turn of >combat is just way to powerful if you ask me. Combat is in rounds, not turns. Each turn means the Methusalah's turn, which is broken into segments, untap, master, minion, transfers, etc. So, each turn could possibly be less often than each combat.

Using equipment is normally optional. You do not have to use Hawg, but if you do, you have to use that press. It allows one press each combat, but could potentially allow multiple presses over the course of a turn.

We just had a game yesterday in which we misread that as "one per combat" and tossed someone into torpor. As always, be careful with the wording on those cards! -- Jonathan "Jack" Vinson vin...@unagi.cis.upenn.edu Philadelphia, PA http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~vinson/home.html "Churchill was a shopping bag" - Fatima Mansions
