Ok so me and my friends have a campaign going 4 heroes and me the OL. Ok my question is regarding the cardinal himself now i know that only zombies and deal damage and that the only way he can be healed is by the relic. Now one of the heroes ablitlies sorry cant remember his name he is able to burn a stamina to take all the damage from an attack for an adjacent hero i understand cardinal is considered a hero with exceptions just curious is he allowed to use that for the cardinal seems like if that is the case then the mission is lost when you rescue him. Any opinions would be very welcome.

Boom

1 : In a Cardinal's Plight can the Cardinal be diseased when does he start testing it ? While the door is sealed or when the library is open ? Also in respect to the Cardinal is he effected by attacks that do no target him but do damage IE blast or howl ?

2 : Do NPCs that have no stamina that suffer stamina loss from an attack or an ability is it converted into damage ?

3 : Can you use hero abilities like defend on NPCs like the Cardinal and Sir Palamon ?

4 : When the overlord is reinforcing for the turn does he choose the master monster or minion monster his choice while respecting group limits ?

5 : Do objective token IE the altar in Cardinal's Plight block los / movement and can you end your movement on the altar?

I can answer these questions for you but for future reference, please submit all rules questions via our website:

1: Yes, the Cardinal can be diseased, and he tests for it when he is activated. No, the cardinal may only suffer damage from zombie attacks.

2: Yes, if they have no Stamina, all fatigue suffered is converted to damage.

3: Yes, if they are treated as a hero.

4: He can choose which figure to reinforce.

5: No, the altar does not block line of sight or movement.
