Fireside chat question
  1. You are allowed to play cards that go next to another card when there are no applicable cards to do so (for example, Wrest the Mind with no non-character targets in play). The card goes to the trash but is not destroyed.
  2. Expatriette’s Ammo cards can be played without a gun in play. If that happens, the Ammo card is destroyed.

 

The above two rulings seem inconsistent. Am I missing something?

The wording is odd on the first one but the end result is the same in that the cards go to the trash.  I would agree that the ammo being destroyed but the ongoing not being considered destroyed seems inconsistent.

Except some cards trigger off of destruction, so the terminology does matter.

I get that and that's why I stated that part seems inconsistent

Sorry.  I wrote my statement before you edited yours to add that bit.  My mistake.

No worries.   I often hit submit and then realize something I meant to add.

Oh, I do that too.  If you're quick enough, usually nobody will notice.  But sometimes they do, and then this happens.

Interesting, I'll bring this up in our next rules discussion with Christopher. Thanks!
