Default Frag Questions

I've just started playing Frag Gold Edition and I need to verify a couple of rules...

Concerning leftovers, the rules state that "[t]he fragged fighter is replaced by a blood counter and (probably) a weapon counter. Both are placed in his square before the attacker’s turn continues. Anyone entering that square may pick up ONE counter, but not both." Should the last sentence end with in a single turn? For example, can a player enter the square, pick up the blood counter, leave the square, re-enter the square and pick up a weapon? Additionally, what if the leftovers are on a power up square? Can you pick up a leftover counter AND roll for a new weapon/gadget? I have been ruling that the player may only pick up one item from a square per turn, whether it is a blood counter, leftover weapon, or power up.

When a player respawns, does he get to draw any additional cards? I don't believe so, but there is still a question in my mind...

Thanks!
Kerry

Yes, it should say "in a single turn". You can't go back and forth over the same square to pick up multiple things.

And if it's dropped on a power-up, you have to choose whether you want the power-up (roll for it, of course), the blood spatter, or any dropped weapons. The general rule is that you can only pick up one thing from any one given square in a single turn.

Nope! Use what you've got. And if you've got nothing, better race to some power-ups quickly. :)
