Question: Reversal of Fortune

I'm wondering what this card exactly does: Reversal of Fortune: Political Action Successful vote means direction of play is reversed. Prey is still to the left, however. Does it mean: a) After the Meth's turn, his/her predator gets to act, or b) After the Meth's turn, game continues a bit, and reverses somewhere between this Meth and his/her prey. I know this sounds really weird, but the guy who played the card insisted this is how it was played, since the card would be useless otherwise, practically giving his predator two turns in a row. (Since he would basically have to keep most of his minions untapped in order to defend himself from his pred). c) None of the above (explain further please). I think a) is a reasonable interpretation, and is how we finally ruled at the time. Thanks in advance, -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | to...@ludd.luth.se / Kristofer Wårell | -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

A) is correct. Note that the effect is permanent (until another RoF is successfully called, of course). After each Methuselah's turn, his/her predator (the player on the right) takes the next turn. -- L.
