How did I loose? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=32336.msg408550#msg408550

I wasn't doing well, so in desperation attempt I stole my opponents Dissipation (I believe it was the field). Next turn to my surprise I lost, how come considering I have enough quanta to shield myself? Confused...

Sanctuary causes your Dissipation Shield to fail.

With Sanctuary in play, your quanta totals can't change during your opponent's turn. Dissipation Shield specifically changes your quanta totals during your opponent's turn to shield you from damage. Sanctuary's effect turns off your Dissipation Shield.

Sanctuary and Dissipation Field/Shield at the same time causes Dissipation Shield/Field to allow all creatures to pass through without a problem.  Reasoning behind this is that Sanctuary forbids your quanta from being modified on your opponent's change, so if that same principle affected Dissipation Shield/Field then that would mean that either a)  Your quanta couldn't be changed and that you would be invincible against all attacks b)  Your quanta couldn't be changed and attacks would simply pass through like the Shield didn't exist.  Option b makes more sense (and is balanced), therefore that's how it works.

EDIT:  Somewhat ninja'd.
