Noble Brigand vs Lighthouse

Apologies if this topic has already been covered...

See this gamelog: http://councilroom.com/game?game_id=game-20120606-163522-1e6ebf3b.html

On 21 Weeks' Turn 9 he begins the turn by playing a Lighthouse.

On my Turn 10 I buy a Noble Brigand which manages to trash and collect 21 Weeks' Gold. Now, I thought this was interesting but then...

On my Outpost Turn 10 I play the same NB from the reshuffle and 21 Weeks' Lighthouse makes him immune to the same attack.


Should Lighthouse protect on NB gain and play?

Lighthouse specifically says, "when another player plays an attack card." It says nothing about gaining. So Isotropic was correct.

...Or, I guess you could just buy a Province.

On that note, Noble Brigand doesn't attack on gain, but on buy.

Note that this is true even for real reaction cards.
You are not allowed to reveal (standard) reaction cards when someone buys a Noble Brigand.

The exception to this are Watchtower and Trader when you do not reveal any Treasure cards and gain a copper, because these do not react to an attack but to the gaining (Watchtower) and "about to gaining" (Trader) of cards.


Same thing with the curse from Ill-Gotten Gains.

Yeah, I learned that lesson the hard way quite some time ago.

When I first started playing on Isotropic I realized how horribly wrong I had been playing IRL.

Occasionally something like this comes along to remind me my immediate reading comprehension must be lower than the tests indicated.
