Default "Cheat wbh" and "pixie potion" question.

Cheat with both hands:
When you use the card cheat with both hands and one of the two items get STOLEN what happens to the CWBHs card? Can I still cheat with my remaining weapon? And for the big questin if yes on the above, can I add a new item after one have been stolen?

Pixie Potion (fairy dust)
Card says: +5 in combat. When you play this card, roll a die. On a ... 4 or more return it to your hand.
So question is if you can use this card multiple times in the same combat? The card does not say "even in the same combat". But it do say when you play, roll.

Hope someone can answer, it got very loud last night;)

CWBH stays attached to the other item. You can add another item.

To the best of my knowledge, cards like the Pixie Potion are meant to be used once per combat. But I can see how it might be implied that you can keep reusing it till you fail the roll.

Andrew and I probably need to discuss this one. I've ruled that you roll then apply the affects after combat is over, but I'm not entirely sure that was the intent. The ability to use something in the next combat has been stated on other cards, and I can't decide, today, if it feels like that text is missing, or intentionally not there. If it's intentional, then the card is a bit confusing.

I ruled that you get the +5 in current combat and you roll after the fight is done to get it back in your hand. My logic was that the card does NOT say "even in the same combat".

Thanks for helping out. Looking forward to you conclusion.

The intent of Pixie Potion is that you roll once the fight is over. It should have been clearer.
