Clarification from FFG regarding activating encounter cards from other players:

Question: An encounter card attached to a player card is not considered to be in your threat area, but can it still be activated by another player? I.e. is an encounter card attached to a player card considered to be "a scenario card that is in play at the same location as the investigator"? (Rules Reference "Activate Action" p. 4)

Answer: Yes! It may not be in your threat area, but it is still a treachery at the same location, and therefore may be triggered by any investigator at that location.

Can I choose an elite enemy at my location to engage and attack him or the text saying non-elite apply also to the engage/fight words ? I would say yes but i'm not sure. This is expensive just to win an action but it could help sometimes.

This has been updated to match my "Signature Weakness Project." I have done my best to make sure that the original content isn't altered too much, out of respect for any comments.

Another Enemy weakness!. Looking at the two elements, the effect and the discard condition, we get:

The effect: Jenny likes resources; it's kind of her thing, and this weakness shuts resource generation beyond the means of the plebes right down. The 4 combat and 3 health make the Beast likely a 2 action roadblock, and a non-combat Jenny can struggle with it. It can be handled by other investigators, which is a plus, and it's not much of a challenge for your average Guardian (or even Miss Barnes under most circumstances). Like Searching for Izzie, a lot depends on when you draw it, although the situation is reversed for the Beast. Drawing it early will ruin your day for a bit and require addressing; drawing it late in the scenario often means you can just ignore it, and the size and shape of the map have a big effect on how easy it is to reach. Mitigating this card requires the usual range of combat options. Getting to the Beast's location involves the typical tools of Elusive and/or Elusive. Jenny could use some of her precious off-class slots on Vicious Blow (to try and take the enemy out in 1 action) or "Get over here!" to bring the Beast to her.

The discard condition: Get to it, and kill it.

All in all, this is an average signature weakness, maybe below Average in multiplayer with a strong monster hunter.

Box vs book Both assets can be replaced with faction cards and are merely good, not fantastic, while both weaknesses are pretty bad, with the Beast being slightly easier (especially in solo), so players might well chose the "book" set over the "box" set, and I doubt anyone will want to take both.

Jenny likes spending XP (who doesn't?), and she is good at generating resources, so there is a good chance that she will pick up a decent "discount" every scenario where this gets played. Since it's a discount on one card as opposed to bonus XP, you will want to have a good idea of what you are intending to buy and, therefore, the maximum resources you want to stack on this in any given scenario. It does eat up a lot of resources, but Jenny is primed to provide them, and it's a fast action to charge the medallion, which makes it more playable. While Jenny's other signature asset takes up both coveted hand slots, it's not like doesn't have some good accessories. Additionally, if you are a gambler, Charon's Obol is probably a more efficient way to do much the same thing as the medallion, although there is no reason you can't run both for some ridiculous XP purchases.

Asset-wise, the two sets are pretty similar, while the "box" signature weakness is worse. Players who like Jenny might get the novel and try out the "book" set for a bit of relief. No one will want to play both, I think.

Really? No reviews after all these years? Well, let's compare to the .45 Automatic.

Pros:

• +1
• Same "1 resource = 1 ammo," but you can decide how much ammo you would like.

Cons:

• The card fills both hand slots, which limits options, assuming Jenny doesn't want to use 1-2 of her precious "free" card slots on Bandolier.

The Con is pretty bad, since Jenny likes her hand slots (Lockpicks, anyone?). I suspect that the dream of pouring 10+ resources into this and never having to find another weapon is a bit of a trap, and the flexibility is more useful in the moment they are played, looking at the quantity and strength of the enemies available at that moment and deciding on expenditure based on that. However, I also suspect that there are other styles of play. Overall, this is a decent weapon, but not a fantastic one, and has a fair number of guns to meet all tastes, so Jenny can definitely get by without this. It's paired with a pretty bad weakness, so are the pistols worth the cost?

It's hard to compare the two signature assets, since they do such different things, but they seem at about the same level. For the signature weaknesses, the "box" is definitely worse than the "book," so the "book" signature set is probably a little kinder, and no one will want both.
