Mommy+illusion

[plutoniumklaas]

Got this scenario this evening:
Player A kicks open a door: Potted plant level 1
Player B plays mommy a new monster appears of level 11 2 levels 2 treasures
Player C uses illusion on the potted plant to make it the wight brothers level 16

my question:
is the mommy now a level 26 3 levels 5 treasures?
or is the mommy still a level 11 2 levels 2 treasures?

Yes. This would work the same as Mate with Illusion, for which there are several rulings. And thus the player, assuming they are Level 4 or higher and can't defeat either monster, would also go down a minimum of four Levels even if they escape!

I thought I should point out, Clipper...pluto asked an either...or question, and your response was "yes." It isn't clear to me from your response which one you're saying "yes" to. :P

Where I can see the correlation between this scenario and the Mate/Illusion scenario there is a difference. The difference is that Mommy wouldn't normally be able to be played on Wight Brothers.

Although I can vaguely remember a ruling that said that the Level 5 and below was just a condition to playing the card and since it had already been played it can be applied to the new bigger monster.

Sorry for not making it more clear, but I was trying to say that you are fighting the Wight Brothers' Mommy... heh.

I also recall that ruling, tremorlaine.
