Default Star Munchkin: Forged ID in Stasis Field

2 questions and a half :)

1. is it legal to use Forged ID in Stasis Field?
1.5 is it legal to use Forged ID in front of The Great Wall (Munchkin Fu)?

and if yes

2. when 2 players try to run away from a monster and Stasis Field/Great Wall is used - does Forged ID saves 1 player or both?

assuming there's only 1 monster in buttle.

thanks in advance

I would allow it. It would counter Stasis Field. As for great wall also. However, I would suggest waiting for MunchkinMan for a official answer.

He does occasionally shut down the computer and go have a life, you know. Maybe you could cut him a little slack? It's not like he's getting paid to do this.

Yes he is. We feed him a newbie once a week and he gets to keep the wallet.
Thats a form of payment isn't it?

It never pays to assume anything. There's always the possibility that, for whatever reason, whether it's something to do with browser cookies or something, that I did not see that there was a new message that required viewing. This does happen, from time to time, and I don't know why. It's rare, but apparently this particular post was a victim to it.

And, yes, I was having a life this weekend. The kind of life where one moves furniture and rips up carpets in preparation for workmen to redo some hardwood floors. Suffice it to say, I don't want that kind of life on a regular basis, but it certainly was good exercise.

As it stands: This is a difficult question to answer, but I would have to agree that I'd allow it. I mean, the wording on the Forged ID says it can be played after a failed die roll, which could be used to argue that a Stasis Field, which negates the need for or overrides a die roll, does not count as a failed die roll. However, the intent of Forged ID is to get you out of a bad situation when your back is up against the wall. So, in the spirit of designed intent, it's allowed.

Forged ID only works for the person playing it.
