Changing Seasons
Published on 05 December 2011 - 08:25:35

Ok, after finally finding the FAQ and scouring it thoroughly, I can't find anything that discusses the changing of the seasons.  I've got another in game situation that needs resolving regarding seasons. 

 

Player A plays the Crown of Mereen (no White Raven in play), which makes it Summer.  A turn later, Player B plays the Crown of Winter (no Black Raven in play), to make it Winter.  Player A believes that both seasons occur at the same time, while Player B believes that the Crown of Winter changes the season from Summer to Winter. 

So, what happens in this situation?

 

Thanks in advance,

Ben

Both Seasons at once.  Doesn't seem logical, but yes, it can be Summer and Winter at the same time.

The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.  -Terry Pratchett

Seriously? That does sound...illogical. 

 

So, how do you stop a season? In the example above, would I need to play a White Raven to cancel the Summer effects?

It helps if you think of the seasons like traits for the entire game environment.

You "stop" a season the same way you stop any trait in the play environment - by using an effect that removes it, or removing the card itself from play. In your scenario, you either play one of the Ravens (making the crowns pointless), or you discard the crown attachment from play.

There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness.'

Ok, cool.  Thanks for the info, folks.

They should add Daffy Duck to this game where he can change it to "Wabbit Season".
