What order does stuff happen in?
For example, all the Relics go first, I know that.
But we each have to send in (up to) three moves. Do all the first moves and stances go first, followed by all the second moves? Or does each player do all of their moves and stances at once, in a certain order?
Also, if I move diagonally against a wall, do I slide vertically/horizontally against it, or is my move cancelled?
For walls, you uh, "slide" I guess. O_o Your move won't be cancelled as long as you don't do something like, 'Move + Investigate' directly INTO a wall tile. But adjacent? You're fine.
First moves + the stances associated with them go first, followed by second moves and so forth. For example:
Actions of 4 players (all on the theoretical same tile)-
Player A: Move North Investigate, Move East
Player B: Move North Assault
Player C: Move East, Move North Fight
Player D (with one bonus AP due to a Relic): Move East, Move Northwest Fight, Move East Fight
First move: A & B both move north; B attacks A dealing damage, and obtains any relics/items in that tile instead of A. However, A will activate any switch in that tile, as the Fight/Assault stances do not. Players C & D both move East, and cannot obtain any relics in that tile as it's a draw between the two stances.
Second move: Player A moves into the tile east of that using explore, while Player C moves up north to fight him, again, dealing damage and obtaining any bonuses from that tile instead of A, but not triggering any switches. Player D, however,
moves northwest to fight Player B (whose stance has expired), and deals damage to B.
Player D does not obtain any relics/bonuses, as B has already gotten them from A already.Third Move:
Player D moves East and Fights both A & C (whose stances have expired), dealing damage to both of them,
but not obtaining any relics/treasures (Player C would have already gotten them).Hypothetically speaking, if everyone gets into a 'Mexican Standoff' or 'draw' in a tile (everyone uses explore on the same relic tile) on the same MOVEMENT, no one obtains any relic. Likewise, again, if two people are in fight stance, one is in explore, and one using defense going to the same tile, no relics are obtained on that movement (they all cancel each other out). BUT, a person who enters that tile right after for the second movement using Explore (and is the only person entering that tile), they are the ones to obtain any relic/bonus.
Thus, if you all enter a tile and the relic is still there, you need to exit/re-enter the tile with the right stance to either take the relic, or stun the player to prevent them from taking any action in the future...
What did happen on O2, Z16 and Z27? I thought that those "O" tiles were suppose to be safe ones... Is this some kind of spreading curse?
I believe that each middle switch turns one O tile into a X tile, though this is just a theory. (3 middle switches were activated, 3 tiles changed into X on the border)
Kuro, enlighten us please!
What you said Sub, nothing more.
While I don't want to give any secrets away, the -only- way you can get access to the legendary relics is by playing a game of the switches; players should coordinate together to figure out the puzzle, although, if everyone (50% of people) wants more disclosure, I suppose I can be a little less cryptic about this...
