To account for the release of Trial by Frost, the update to Comprehensive Rules will be published on January 20, 2025.

Added Card Rulings

The information below is displayed by card name in alphabetical order.

Atlas | Ordis | Rare

Q: If a Character is both Gigantic and Defender, for example because I control both Atlas (Rare, Ordis version) and Gulrang & Tocsin, what happens? A: "My Expedition", for a Gigantic Character, means "my Expeditions", plural. Therefore a Defender, Gigantic Character would prevent both their Expeditions from moving forward.

Auraq & Kibble | Lyra | Hero

Q: Can the "At Noon —" effects of a card played via Auraq & Kibble activate the same Noon it is played? A: No. At the beginning of the Noon phase, all the "At Noon —" effects are triggered simultaneously. Then, starting with the first player, each player resolves them in the order of their choice. If a card is played via Auraq & Kibble’s effect, it is too late for its "At Noon —" effects to be triggered.

Coppélia | Axiom | Common

Q: If another effect somehow sends Coppélia to the discard pile after she joins the Reserve from hand but before she's played, can she be played from discard? A: In general, effects and abilities which affect a card when it's in a specific zone cannot track it if it changes zones unless they specifically mention this zone change. When Coppelia goes to Reserve from hand, her effect can find her in Reserve to play her because it specifically mentions this possibility, and it can find her in the Expedition zone to give her Asleep because, again, its effect mentions playing her. However, no part of the effect refers to going to the discard pile (unlike a Moonlight Jellyfish which mentions "When I'm sacrificed") so it cannot find the card in the discard to play it.

Gulrang & Tocsin | Ordis | Hero

Q: If a Character is both Gigantic and Defender, for example because I control both Atlas (Rare, Ordis version) and Gulrang & Tocsin, what happens? A: "My Expedition", for a Gigantic Character, means "my Expeditions", plural. Therefore a Defender, Gigantic Character would prevent both their Expeditions from moving forward.

Kuwat, the Dissenter | Yzmir | Common

Q: What does it mean to "sacrifice a Character"? A: To sacrifice a Character means "discard a Character that you control." You only control Characters in your Expeditions.

Ordis Cadets | Ordis | Common

Q: If another effect or ability somehow discards or sends to Reserve or moves a card that says “create a token in my Expedition” between the moment it's triggered and the moment it's resolved, what happens? A: If an object that says "in my Expedition" doesn't exist anymore, but its effect is still being resolved, it refers to the Expedition it was last in.

Ratatoskr| Ordis | Rare

Q: If another effect or ability somehow discards or sends to Reserve or moves a card that says “create a token in my Expedition” between the moment it's triggered and the moment it's resolved, what happens? A: If an object that says "in my Expedition" doesn't exist anymore, (because its card is not in the Expedition), it refers to the Expedition it was last in.
