Enthrall the Foreign Explorers (Lure of the Deep Wilderness)

Frequently Asked Questions

Adversaries

• Does making Explorers not participate in Ravage (e.g., with Lure of the Deep Wilderness) prevent "Competition Among Hunters" (The Tsardom of Russia Level 3) from causing Ravages?
  Yes.

  Since "Competition Among Hunters" modifies which lands match Ravage Cards, it only checks for Explorers that are participating in Ravage.

Effect Rules

• Pieces that "do not participate in Ravage" are ignored for Ravages. Does this include checking for victory?
  No, that wasn't intended. Pieces not participating in an Invader Action are still counted for Victory / Defeat.

Spirits and Innate Powers

• Is Lure of the Deep Wilderness' ability to ignore Explorers the same as saying those Explorers do not participate in Ravage?
  Yes. You may ignore Explorers for determining which lands Ravage and for individual Ravage actions, as per "does not participate in Ravage" (JE rulebook, p. 14; NI rulebook, p. 6).

• Can Lure of the Deep Wilderness win the game in Terror Level 1 by using Enthrall the Foreign Explorers?
  Changed answer: No. Lure's ability effectively means "do not participate in Ravage", and pieces not participating in Ravage aren't ignored for Victory / Defeat.

  It would be better phrased as, "For each of your Presence in a land, up to 2 Explorer do not participate in Ravage."

• When using another Spirit's Presence for targeting (e.g., via "Entwined Power"), can you also use that Presence to determine where you can "target" Special Rules?
  No, Special Rules don't "target" the way that Powers do, even if where you can use that Special Rule is restricted in some way based on where you have Presence or a Sacred Site.

  Special Rules can only benefit from "Entwined Power" and similar effects if the Special Rule modifies the process of choosing which land/Spirit you're targeting with a Power (e.g., for meeting a Sacred Site / terrain targeting requirement or moving Presence as part of targeting) and only as part of that targeting process.
