<p>I presume the “During this exploration” phrase is just extraneous, right? It’s a discard to move, then you may explore, and you get a d6 on combat during the explore.</p>In the Hunter class deck, Pteranodon says “On your turn, discard this card to move.

<p>Also, you always determine which skill you’re using during the Determine Which Skill You’re Using action, and the rule "You may play only 1 such card or use only 1 such power to determine which skill you’re using" needs to be followed (unless something specifically overrides it Golden Rule–style). We are definitely going to need to do an override for Zelhara, but I suspect we will not do it for Varril (meaning if Varill uses his power, he can't also use a weapon).</p>
<p>We want all of this to be consistent for all character powers, and we recognize that this may mean rewording some of them.
