Vicious Blow

Vicious Blow
  • Q: Can I commit Vicious Blow for an extra damage to an attack performed with Enchanted Blade or Brand of Cthugha against enemies that can’t be damaged except by spells and/or relics? Like Poltergeist and Miasmic Shadow A: Yes, you can commit Vicious Blow to the Enchanted Blade’s Fight test to give the attack +1 damage. (Note, this is because “that attack” is given +1 damage, rather than Vicious Blow itself dealing 1 damage, which wouldn’t work.) (Rules Forum Answer, July 2024)

Enchant Weapon

Enchant Weapon
  • Q: I've got a question about Enchant Weapon. It lets you add the willpower of its owner to the combat value during a fight action on the weapon its attached to and also get +1 damage). I'm wondering if this skill boost also works for weapons that replace the combat value (like Ornate Bow for example). A: No; Enchant Weapon will only add Willpower to Combat for attacks that use Combat value normally. If attached to Ornate Bow, which replaces Combat with Agility when taking a Fight action, Enchanted Weapon does not add Willpower to that skill value. (However, the attack will still deal +1 damage.)

Delve Too Deep

Delve Too Deep
  • Q: If I have Self Centered in my threat area and play Delve Too Deep, what happens? A: What would happen is, only you would draw an encounter card, and then you’d discard Delve Too Deep. This is because you can’t affect other investigators with this player card effect, and even if you did use it on yourself, you haven’t resolved the “pre-then” text on Delve Too Deep in full, so you can’t resolve the “post-then” effect of adding it to the victory display.

Hatchet

Hatchet
  • Q: I have question about card Hatchet and using it against a concealed mini card. What happens when I succeed? A: If you intend to expose an enemy with Hatchet’s fight ability, regardless of if you succeed or fail, you keep Hatchet in your play area. Successfully exposing the card replaces “all standard effects of the ability” you used for the exposure, so you don’t have to worry about that; and failing to expose the card means there is no “enemy” for Hatchet to attach to, and with no potential change in the game state, you ignore the instruction to attach Hatchet.
