That is correct Kamishev.  Both trigger, but you can choose which one to pay the reveal cost of, and let the other just be canceled.

Both Block and Reverse Attack can be used against ANY attack.  And they MUST be revealed when the creature they are attached to is attacked. However, they automatically fail against an UNAVOIDABLE attack (an attack with the unavoidable trait).

For clarification:  There are 2 main types of attacks, melee and ranged.  95% of all attacks are either melee or ranged.  All spell attacks, like Fireball, are always ranged attacks.  You can always tell because in the gray metallic "attack bar" will be an arrow icon for ranged attacks, or a sword icon for melee attacks.

Other types of attacks include damage barriers and wall attacks.  A few special attacks have no particular category, such as the special 3 dice unavoidable "bash" attack which occurs when a creature is pushed into a wall with the passage blocks trait.

Hope all of that helps!

I am compelled to agree sir.  It makes good sense and we want things to work logically and realistically!  Nice job - thanks!

When Reverse Magic is revealed, you take control of that spell.  Although the Cast Spell Step is over, you are allowed to adjust the spell's choices and pay additonal mana costs if any.

With Dissolve, you take control of the spell.  It now targets the original casting Mage, and you can now choose a new piece of equipment for Dissolve on that Mage.  If that piece of equipment costs more than the cost has already been paid for Dissolve, you must pay the difference.  If it costs less, you do not get any mana refunded.

Same thing with Reverse Magic on Force Push.  If the original caster did not pay the extra mana to push through a wall, but you want to push him through a wall, you can pay the extra mana to do so.  If the opposite is true, you do not get a mana refund for choosing to not push him through a wall.

As much as possible, we want things in Mage Wars to work the way you think they should work.

We're sorry that this text does not appear on the Reverse Magic card.  The card was already a little text heavy!  You will see this text in our coming Spell/Rules FAQ, and also in our online card database  (coming very soon!).

Sorry for the confusion, and hope this helps.

Normally flyers do NOT encounter walls, when moving or being pushed.  However, they do get bashed when pushed against the OUTSIDE arena walls.  Those are considered high walls, and the ultimate boundary to the arena.

I hope that clarification helps!

As you probably guessed, this was intentional. We were a tad concerned about having the ability to stun fairly easily every round.  The Temple is still pretty powerful though!

Ha!  Glad you like it.  Its both comical and deadly!

The skunk is legendary, and his current playtest name is Rafain.  If anyone wants to make a better suggestion, we'll go with the coolest name!
