Curse vs Steed Effect

Ghazran · 01-30-2019, 05:42 PM

During my last game I had the Raptor Steed and was affected by "Curse! You Incurred Hera's Wrath" and I was forced to run away.

The Raptor Steed states if I run away I must discard it and my escape is automatic.

The curse states I automatically fail my next run away attempt.

My question is, does the Raptor Steed overwrite the curse and I escape or do I suffer the bad stuff and lose my Raptor Steed?

Any ideas?

FWIW, my take is this:

You were forced to run away.
The raptor's effect triggers by the decision (in this case being forced) to run away.
The raptor gets discarded, and you succeed automatically without actually making an attempt to run away (roll of the die).
As you didn't make an attempt (die roll) the curse's effect doesn't trigger and is lingering around for the next time you need to attempt to run away.

That's my take. Andrew might have a different one though.
