Ok, then Let's make it so.

Zippy, Can you add this to the rules addendum?

"if you lose a match, you may trade a Major item for a new random Major item, instead of gaining a Minor item.

If you win a match, you may trade a Major Item for a new random Major item and a new random Minor Item, instead of gaining a new Medium Item."

---

does that start now? (like the match Im in now) or next week?

The magic item / major item exchange update is added.

It's probably time to type up a rough draft of EC Rules V2. Send me the original document (or I can grab it off the web) - I'll type in changes (adopted changes, rules addenda, errata, etc.) and route for review.

Then, when new stuff like psionics comes on board, it's not an overwhelming overhaul to include.

Screen captures (and all peripheral requirement software) will exclude some people. Probably easier to simply paste in the WoTC format warband as your reveal, adding tiles and magic item distribution, as opposed to screen capture sends. The opponent can then paste it in the WoTC generator. Leveled up units becomes a hassle in this regard.

Also, just from personal experience, I prefer to tell people what to do, not necessarily how to do it, since everyone has a favorite tool for any task.

I myself am confused on how scrolls work, so while I'd love to propose a reword on the rule text, I'm not able to.

Tullywi, Galweinhaw, how do scrolls work? I know we've gone down this road before, and I recall it giving an extra casting in addition to the metamagic boost.

Seems to me the way to go might be to change the way scrolls work: Minor Scrolls could now grant 1 extra casting of a spell, sans metamagic, while a Major Scroll grants an extra casting + a metamagic feat. Granted, you loose the "multiple lower level spells on a major scroll," but I feal that this is more than outwayed by the simplicity of the new system, both in terms of understanding the rules, and keeping track of scrolls. What does everyone else think?

You can only learn spells on the spell list and those you can already cast. The spell list will be increased for V2.

I need a Campaign rule clarification
( if this was answered somewhere already, apologies as I overlooked it)

Spoils of War

If the victor of a battle is in the possession of any of his opponent’s magic items, including creatures that have routed or withdrawn, he may choose to take the equivalent of one medium magic item from these instead of rolling a random item. If the victor chooses not to take one of these items, he instead destroys one medium item of his opponent's that he has in his possession. If the loser of the battle has creatures withdraw or route while in the possession of his opponent’s magic items, he may keep a minor item in place of rolling for a new one, or he may keep a medium one in place of randomly rolling an item if he chooses to exchange a minor magic item he already owns for a random magic item of medium power.

My question is when a unit dies and drops an item on the battlefield
does your opponent have to clearly state that they are picking up the item?

My situation was I left an item on the battlefield due to a unit death
and after the match my opponent said he was obligated to keep or destroy the item. he chose to destroy it. this hasn't happened to me before as most people generally don't bother taking items and would rather roll. In this case it was "you dropped it it's gone either way"

Have we been slacking on the rules?
If you drop an item on the battlefield is it automatically picked up and either kept or destroyed? OR is it only removed from the field if your opponent declares he is picking it up? (then having the choice to keep or destroy it.) I was assuming unrecovered items on the battlefield returned to their owner. Which is it?

Thanks

Since that's the case, I gave up an item uneccesarily in my last EC match versus Richard II, due to confusion on this by myself and my opponent. Should I chalk it up as a blunder?
or should I get the item back?
I am cool with it either way, of course I can really use the item however.

Hide: If this creature has cover against a nonadjacent enemy from something other than intervening creatures (such as a wall or statue), it is considered to have the Invisible special ability (see that entry, below) against that creature. A creature without Blindsight making a ranged attack can't see or target an enemy with Hide that has such cover. (If the creature with Hide can make a ranged attack, it usually gets a +2 bonus for attacking enemies that cannot see it.) If a creature can trace line of sight to all points of an enemy's square from any single point of its square, then the enemy cannot benefit from Hide against that creature.
