War 5 - Round 3

[Mithcairion]

It seemed every time they turned, there was another threat to their very existence.  Graboids evolved into hateful creatures, dragons wheeled through the air, and even the very light seemed to coalesce when called upon to serve its master.  Already the war had taken its toll.  Bodies lay strewn about the broken ground, and it was all the generals could do to keep their forces focused on the task at hand rather than be deterred by those they had lost.  Was there nothing to be done? “Master.” The general knew the voice, as it belonged to the cloaked figure he had seen in his visions before.  When he looked up, though, all that there was before him was an ancient tome.  There was no sign of the cloaked figure who had uttered that one lonely word.  The general couldn’t suppress the shiver that ran down his spine as he investigated the strange work before him.  The bindings of the archaic volume creaked in protest as the it was gazed upon for the first time in what must have been centuries.  At last, an unforeseen option had opened to him.  While it could lead to disaster, it could also lead to an advantage heretofore unknown.  This could be just what his desolate troops needed. “Sir!”  The Lieutenant’s hurried salute jolted the general out of his musings.  “Our intelligence has discovered a relic of power among the ruins of our enemies encampment.  It is guarded, but only by a small force.  If we can spare a small band, they should be able to capture it for our troops with a minimal loss to us.” Yes, this could very well finally turn the tide of this hateful war into their favor.  IF their gambit worked.  If it didn’t, though.... Event Card: Notes: - Both Event Cards are in effect this round; there is no need to choose between the two.  Generals (and Generals only) should create a "Round 3 Event Card decision" thread in their secret section and post which cards are being targeted by Telepathic Gambit. - Full Support matches won can come from attacking OR defending players, so long as a match is actually played.  The exception: taking an undefended Relic counts as a won match. - Telepathic Gambit details: You don't have to name a card for each matchup.  Pick any number of matchups or ignore the card altogether.  The discard is not random; you'll choose it during next sdcpa.

WAR #5 ROUND 3 Read the War Rules Contact Warmasters News: War continues! Deckbuilding: Duel phase has started Teams have to build decks for all players who are fighting during this round. Decks are to be added to the Vault Google doc. Team Strategist works with the doc but all team members participate in the planning. Please do not post your decks in public or talk about them in chat. All decks must be made ready before the timer goes to zero, after which editing deck post is strictly forbidden. Failure to have all the decks ready will lead to a severe card penalty, and/or automatic losses. It is highly recommended that all team members double-check their decks before the duels start. Duels: Round has ended Duel phase starts when deckbuilding ends. PM your opponent and try to find a time that suits you both. Time Zone Converter might be useful here. If you cannot find a time when you are both are online, please contact Warmasters kevkev60614, ddevans96, and Mithcairion immediately. If the match doesn't happen you both lose by default unless one of you is clearly more active and/or flexible. Duels are "best-of-five", you must use the deck and mark built during the previous phase, and you cannot make any changes to your deck or mark during the round.

Question.
Does TPGambit only triggers during your opponent's match with you only, or with any opponent the team plays?
Also, can it trigger multiple times, or just once per opponent?

Does Full Support take place for Round 2 support team battles or Round 3 ones? I guess round 3, since affecting those of round 2 seem quite... strange, if not unfair, given that the event was released AFTER we made our strategic choices. But I'd rather check.

Full Support takes place for the next Support actions taken.  That is to say, it is for the actions being declared in Round 3, and the actual battles will take place in Round 4.

As I suspected (was referring to Support Team Battles' Round 3, which is the next one indeed).

SpikeSpiegal has replaced Tiko on Team 's Main Team.

ERRATA CORRIGE: SpikeSpiegEl, not SpiegAl

It's good to be back in the main team, it's hard to sub a player like Tiko.

just to clarify telepathic gambit text, does "off-element" refer to our element or our opponent's element?

Your opponent's off element.

For example:  You () are playing against .  You can name any non-:fire card for Telepathic Gambit.
