If you manage to create a land with no adjacent lands, how do things like Blight cascades or Push work? Can you target it from lands Range 2+ away?

If you manage to create a land with no adjacent lands, how do things like Blight cascades or Push work? Can you target it from lands Range 2+ away?

  • There are no adjacent lands to add Blight to, so Blight does not cascade.
  • Push can't Push anything (unless you can Push to a land 2 away - eg, Many Minds Move as One - and there's a land 2 away, see below).
  • Whether you can target the land depends on whether you can measure Range from your Presence to it. If you made a disjoint land via Cast Down into the Briny Deep + Absolute Stasis, yes, because the land is Range 2 from other lands. But if you completely wall off a land via Repeats of Absolute Stasis, then there's no way to measure Range to it, so the only way to target Powers there would be to either have Presence in the land or the ability to ignore range (eg, Finder of Paths Unseen).
Note that Isolate is NOT usually sufficient to generate any of these situations, since it only affects adjacency for Invader pieces (JE rules, p. 10).
