Title: Lighthouse + Reactions
Post by: soulnet on December 25, 2012, 06:22:55 pm

Hi,

I was wondering if it was legal to reveal a reaction X to an attack while I have Lighthouse in play, or do it AFTER revealing Moat (the second makes sense to allow to do things like reveal Moat to stop the attack and then reveal Secret Chamber to put back that moat, so it actually is the reverse of the usual Secret Chamber/Moat thing).

I'm inclined to YES on both, but the word "unaffected" may be stronger than I think. Allowing me to reveal a Reaction would be an "affection" the Attack is giving. On the other hand, it may be interpreted as the playing of the attack and not the attack itself is what allows me to reveal the Reaction.

Thanks!

You can still reveal a Horse Traders to an attack when you have Lighthouse in play (and so on). Similarly you can both Moat and Horse Traders an attack.

I'm still sad Lighthouse doesn't let you choose to be affected or not - like Moat -, darn you Minion!
