Lucky Talisman + Clerical Error

okudaxij · 03-17-2013, 01:51 PM

If the Lucky Talisman is enacted by a player in battle to reflect the Clerical Error curse to an adjacent player, does the original battle continue while the battle against the newly undead creature is set aside until afterwards, or do both battles occur SIMULTANEOUSLY!? (this would be exciting if it were the case)

Official Ruling!!

In any and all cases in which it appears distinct combats would take place simultaneously, resolve the active combat first (if any), and then resolve all other combats in turn order, starting with the active player. The combats are considered to be simultaneous, even though for purposes of gameplay you're resolving them one at a time.

No player who has a pending combat or who has just completed a combat on this turn may help any other player; you're too busy.

If both of the "simultaneous" combat would give the player the winning level do both get resolved and then the winner determined or is it the first combat resolved wins?

Given they're happening simultaneously, it only seems fair that they would resolve simultaneously as well, so multiple people could achieve the winning level. Of course, the final word is up to those able to provide official responses.

I can't think of any reason why this wouldn't be the official answer, so I'm saying it is.
