Garth Greenhand

Rules FAQ

  • If you lose control of attached location, Garth Greenhand will become illegally attached and will get discarded. That also happens if Garth Greenhand'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 Garth Greenhand to become illegally attached.

  • You can attach Garth Greenhand to a limited location like The Arbor or Redwyne Straits.

  • You can trigger Randyll Tarly (Core) immediately after he becomes a participating character. If you are the attacking player, this happens in the same reaction window as reactions to a challenge being initiated and reactions to a character being declared as an attacker. If you control Highgarden Courtier, you can stand any unique character you control in the same way.

  • Characters get +1 STR after they are declared as attackers, so it will be too late for Roseroad Patrol to use stealth if a character you control becomes a character with the highest STR in play due to Garth Greenhand's ability.

Blackwater Forces

Rules FAQ

  • If Blackwater Forces is participating in the challenge, it is a valid target for its own ability. But note that it will no longer be participating if the ability that stands it also removes it from the challenge.

Grey Worm's Spear

Rules FAQ

  • Attached character is "attacking" when it is participating in the challenge on the attacking player's side. This happens from the point when the challenge is initiated (Step 4.2). A defending character is any character participating in the challenge on the defending player's side. This usually happens from the point when defenders are declared (Step 4.2.1).

Aegon Targaryen

Rules FAQ

  • You can trigger Aegon even when a non-loyal character enters play under an opponent's control.

  • If the character that enters play is immediately removed from play (for instance, by Ser Jaime Lannister (BtB)), the triggering condition for Aegon still happened, so you can still stand him.

  • If Aegon enters play during the challenges phase and is knelt by Last Hearth Scouts, he can react to himself entering play and stand himself again.

  • If you play In Daznak's Pit, the "limit twice per phase" count starts again for the new challenges phase.

Bran the Breaker

Rules FAQ

  • If you lose control of attached location, Bran the Breaker will become illegally attached and will get discarded. That also happens if Bran the Breaker'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 Bran the Breaker to become illegally attached.

  • Controlling 2 unique attacking characters only matters at the point when you trigger the ability. The claim value will then be raised until the end of the challenge even if those characters are removed from the challenge or leave play, and even if Bran the Breaker itself is blanked or leaves play.

  • If you reveal a new plot during the challenge in which you triggered Bran the Breaker (for instance, with "The Rains of Castamere"), your claim value will remain raised. (See References to Specific Positions in Game Areas.)
