Rules FAQ

  • If you lose control of attached location, The Laughing Storm will become illegally attached and will get discarded. That also happens if The Laughing Storm's text box is blanked at any point (for instance, by Brother's Robes), because it will lose the play permission of being allowed to be attached to a location rather than a character. On the other hand, assaulting (or otherwise blanking) attached location will not cause The Laughing Storm to become illegally attached.

  • If attached location leaves play, The Laughing Storm return to its owner's hand.

  • The attachment stands and kneels independently of attached location.

  • Cards can be discarded "at random" from your hand for claim (even in the scenario where all the remaining cards are being discarded), or by an ability that specifically uses the phrase "at random". A card that is chosen to be discarded is not discarded at random.

  • If The Laughing Storm is standing and you win a challenge with The Hound (TtB), you cannot choose to keep him in play. Note that The Hound will always resolve first in this scenario, because forced reactions always resolve before optional ones. On the other hand, if you lose a challenge with Moon Boy, the forced reaction will not resolve if The Laughing Storm is standing.

  • You can trigger the reaction on attack or defence.
