Hidden Lurker Q

Folks: Hidden Lurker says: "The first round of combat, the blocking minion cannot use any strikes. Superior: As above, but with an optional press." Now, does the term "cannot use any strikes" mean "can use no strikes of any kind, even hand strikes"? Or does it mean "can use only hand strikes"? Let me know, and thanks, Madman -- Free audio & video emails, greeting cards and forums Talkway - http://www.talkway.com - Talk more ways (sm)

It means "can use no strikes of any kind. pooh on him." as usual when anyone mentions hidden lurker though, i have to point out that the specification "blocking minion" means that yes, you must be blocked while taking an action for this to even be playable. -- Derek Deafness never kept composers from hearing the music.

Derek: >>I have to point out that the specification "blocking minion" means that yes, you must be blocked while taking an action for this to even be playable.<< Well, this is usually not a concern I have. :( So, the Hidden, Lurking vampire essentially gets a free strike against the blocking minion, eh? That's nice. Thanks, [ quoted text not captured ]
