Pallando specific. Playable if you are Pallando and have at least 12 stage points and 5 factions in play. Pallando need not be at the appropriate site when making an influence attempt on an opponent's resource or character. Such an influence check is modified by half (rounded up) of Pallando's unused general influence (to a maximum of 10) instead of his unused direct influence. Subtract from the attempt the number of regions between Pallando's site and the site where the influence attempt would normally be made. Discard if you have fewer than 5 factions in play. Cannot be duplicated.
A literal interpretation would be that half of Pallando's unused General Influence is still General Influence, and therefore Webs will not affect it. However, Webs would remove the -1 per region modification.Except for unused general influence and unused normal direct influence (including influence modifications given in a character's card text), all modifications to each influence attempt are reduced to zero.
I don't think so. IIRC the influence attempt is not a roll by a player against a certain value: it is rather two opposed rolls, one for each player, and who rolls higher wins (in case of a tie, the player resisting to the attempt wins).Alter Tuk wrote:And iirc your opponent wont be able to roll against your influence attempt as that would be a modification.
The opponent's roll is clearly considered as a modification to the influence roll.· Add the influencing character's unused direct influence.
· Subtract your opponent's unused general influence points.
· Subtract the result of a roll (2D6) made by your opponent.
· Add any other modifications (from cards and special abilities). All modification cards must be played before either player makes a roll.
, I'm going to dramatically re-evaluate WoF&T, looks like that card has potentially great practical uses...
