Nope. "Will not" is not the same as "retroactively untriggered." If a mine triggers due to the first short skill of an order, it's already...
I think that it's very plausible that mines ere intended to be removed from the table immediately when triggered, and there's nothing in that FAQ...
I don't think that's clear from the language at all.
I guess. I see a lot of people do things other than what he says, though. Like you mentioned in another thread, though, this is an emergent...
That's all predicated on the idea that a mine can be retroactively un-triggered; I don't think it can.
No, I think that could very much be settled in a theoretical N3.5. Everyone basically plays with Intent anyway.
@inane.imp I think the game needs more of an N3.5 rather than an N4.
@inane.imp I think that the mine has already triggered and left the table at that point. If the rules let you do it, it's kosher.
@inane.imp it needs to be stated somewhere, then, as otherwise it's kosher to clear mines this way.
Saw the same thing for the Hatail in Tohaa. But we knew they were re-doing all of the Spec Ops rules so that's fine.
Sometimes I feel like Tohaa don't really fit in the rest of Infinity, rules-wise *or* fluff-wise. I'm a fan of CA; I'd love to see the rest of the...
It's unlear to me why Isolation breaks SF mode. I guess they intended Jammers to be an easy "this guy causing you trouble in a straight up...
The issue is that mines are not aros, and don't follow the same rules.
That's not clear at all. I was under the inpression they were removed ad soon as they triggered.
"Will not" is not the same as "retroactively untrigger."
@inane.imp that's only from the xenotech, from my understanding. They have a special entry for it in the faq and everything. Given that faq...
On a related note, why did Bostria say that using Counterintelligence meant that it was revealed that his Lt was the schemer when he did that?
Aight, I have a trooper synched with a civilian (such as an HVT). NOT a xenotech. I declare a first short skill move. A nearby enemy mine is...
This is part of why it's ridiculously gamey that Nomads get a mysterious super-jump remote. It's quite obvious from the batrep that Bostria...
The problem is, since we're not allowed to talk about the "way we (really one guy in particular) treat(s) one another," it doesn't get resolved.
