I must have gotten unlucky then, I guess. I double checked just to be sure and all of my core set cards are the darker shade, while all of my CotCT cards are that distinctly different lighter shade. I'll contact CS, though I'm still not sure which set is actually off color

I did not have this problem with the Core Set at all. But I've moved onto Curse of the Crimson Throne and as far as I can tell every single CoTCT card has a different colored back compared to the core set cards. I noticed when I was shuffling two CoTCT banes with two Core Set proxies, it's different enough that I can tell which ones are the story banes without doubt. I double checked now that I've noticed it and I can also pick out all of the CoTCT cards in player decks, locations, and the blessing decks, just from the back.

I'm not sure what to do. Replacing an entire expansion seems like a waste to me, and I'm not even sure which one of the sets is actually off color. I'm probably going to have to unsleeve the entire box and do it over with opaque sleeves, which is a huge bummer. I'm loving the gameplay of the new version but the component quality has really disappointed me.

I know the rule is that you can only use a power or type of card once per check, but I guess I'm not sure how exactly it works.

I'm playing through AD4, and I have Estra's power that allows you to reveal a blessing or spell to reduce damage dealt to her by 5. She encounters the villain, who deals 1d4+1 poison damage to her before she acts. She fails the check to defeat and takes 4 combat damage, and the villain also deals 1d4 poison damage if undefeated.

The way I assumed it works is that I can reduce the Before you act damage, and then I have to choose between reducing the combat or poison damage since they both happen as a result of the same check, but I wanted to make sure so I have it defined for the future.


Tup lists Deliverance as a cohort but I don't think that card is included in the PDF?
