Is Reactivate a Talent? - Hoffman

[Calmdown]

The reality actually is: You don't know what goes on in rules development for Malifaux. You can assume all day long, but the facts are not in your sphere of knowledge.

Great. Looking forward to you proving just how much my knowledge is lacking with a well-written and well thought-out ruling.

I know there is probably much deliberation going on about this from the RM's and such, but with Lazarus strategies popping up all over the place I'm really looking forward to an official ruling.

It's been a week has anything come out in a different thread that relates to this?

anyone else think that his avatars gonna get outa controll if he decides to kill random construct he reactivated as part of his manifestation req then gaining it for the rest of the game? i think its a little broke sauce but then again i dont see too many hoff players anywhay.

I dont think this would work because the "Assimilate Edict" directly states "a specific action" not talent as Hoffman's original Assimilate states. Reactivate is not an action regardless if it is gained as an effect or pre-existing on a model as a talent.

It's just a good thing that avatar talents and spells cannot be copied by other non-avatar models. Otherwise Lazarus would be out of control gaining avatar Ramos powers.

Activate target Construct after this model's activation ends. If the target Construct has activated previously this turn, it gains Reactivate. This model's Controller controls the target during this activation After this activation, the target cannot activate again this turn

In My Book it says:

Activate target Construct, after this model's activation ends, regardless of wether target hast activated or not this turn. This model's Controller controls the target during this activation. After this activation target cannot activate again this turn.

and I can find no errate changing it Oo

I think that is a case of Card vs Book. Card supersedes.

to bad, the books solution was clear and doubtless ;)
