Hey All, The dark Harvest Card for the Undead team - It is an Aura so it stays on the squad card. It says " When you enchant a squad with Dark Harvest, destroy a creature in that squad. Enchanted squad gets +3 Double swords " 1st - just want to make sure they mean you get 3 extra attack Dice? Or is you roll your attack and get +3 to your attack? I am guessing the 1st. 2nd - I take it since it says 'when" I do not have to use this? That is how we played. Or when you have one guy left you have to kill him and you get no attack of +3. 3rd - If I am right about #2 above then this will be very cool when using a few same squads. But the way the cards says in this Squad - what does that mean if I do have 2 or 3 squads of zombies in play ( are they all 1 squad? like in HS? Or do I need to have sets of 3? ). I understand this one is really for the Hasbro. Thanks hendal Game On'

A squad is one card and it consists of 3 figures. when you enchant the squad, its the entire squad. To use dark harvest you have to destroy one figure and the rest will have +3 attack dice. The effect needs to happen when you play the card that turn, then it gives the attack to the rest of the squad. The three zombies are considered a squad and it would not effect other squads of the same zombies. Hope this helps.

Zylos - thanks, but to be honeset it does not help me much. Yes I know there are 3 figures per squad, but I do not know how the game will handle me making a 1,000 point army with 3 squads of Zombies in it. I also still do not know if I I have to use to the effect to kill a guy every time I use the zombies or if it is just that first time I use it and then it is a choice to use it or not? It is a aura so I guess it stays in play, but it is activated every time I use that squad?
Thanks

The destroy effect happens only when you play Dark Harvest, then the +3 effect is ongoing in the remaining figures in that squad.

Jsanner -thanks. I can see that, but if I can summon multiple of this squad - how will that work. And it is for 3 extra attack dice?

A single Dark Harvest card will enchant ONLY ONE three-zombie squad. If you have multiple squads, Dark Harvest WILL NOT enchant or affect those squads unless you play a Dark Harvest card on that squad as well (if you have multiple copies). For example: You have three squads of Restless Zombies on the battlefield. Let's call them Restless Zombies Squad A, Squad B, and Squad C. And let's assume for now that all squads are still complete (both A, B, and C have all three of their figures remaining). Cast Dark Harvest targeting Squad A. Per the effect of Dark Harvest, you immediately destroy one of the Restless Zombies in Squad A, and the remaining two Restless Zombies in Squad A will get +3 attack dice each as long as Dark Harvest is not destroyed by some opponent's spell and as long as at least one figure from Squad A remains on the battlefield. If both remaining Restless Zombies in Squad A die, the figures will be put into the Figure Graveyard, the Army Card for Squad A will be put in the Army Card graveyard, and the enchantment Dark Harvest will be put into the spell card graveyard. NOTE: If you return a Restless Zombie(s) to play using the ability on their Army Card, Dark Harvest will NOT return to the battlefield. None of the above will have any effect on Restless Zombies Squad B or Squad C.

Thanks Jsanner - I don't understand why you would not have to kill a guy the 2nd turn, you read the whole card and follow what is on it, so the 2nd time around you would have to kill another one - how I see it, but I am fine with not killing it and letting the squad have the bonus.

DARK HARVEST says "when you enchant a squad with Dark Harvest, destroy a creature in that squad". Even if you have the card on a squad more than one turn you have only enchanted the squad once. You can only use one unique squad per army. If you ignore this rule some cards become much more powerful. Even taking this into account, the zombies have 3 figs. Each fig is unique to that squad. If you want to use 3 squads of Restless Zombies each squad MUST HAVE one of each fig(ax raised, ax at the side, ax pointing)at the beginning of the game. Furthermore all three must die before the card gos to the grave yard and can come back. Always means attack dice. Damage In this game will always say damage. (eg: Incinerate)
