Hi everyone, Can Maximus us his "Get behind me!" ability to absorb damage to an adjacent ally from a flipped burning token? I'm new to the boards, but I'm loving Aristeia!
Since the experts in Spain are now asleep, I will attempt to answer. The key thing here is that Maximus' "Get Behind Me" is an automatic skill. I quote the Reference Guide: In addition to Actions, some Character cards include Automatic Skills, indicated by their orange title . Automatic Skills’ Effects are always active, even during an Enemy’s Activation, or when the Character is in the Infirmary or the Bench. So "You can suffer instead of an adjacent Ally" Flipping a burning token can cause damage = so I would say Yes, Maximus may absorb the damage.
And that's the right answer, 'cos Maximus may suffer Damage instead of an Adjacent Ally, but "Get Behind Me!" does not specify a source this Damage comes from.
