Korruption Damage

Other Games SotM Game Engine

With Korruption, the card reads:

At the end of the environment turn, this card deals each non-environment target 1 melee damage.  Then, this card deals any target damaged this way 1 toxic damage.

Is the toxic damage dealt immediately if the melee is successful or does each target get the melee damage first, then each successfully hit target get hit for one toxic?

Thanks,
Ben

It is dealt immeditately after the melee.

Really Ronway?  I would certainly usually play that way in tabletop, just because it's easier, and wouldn't *usually* make a difference.  But in terms of correctness, those are two completely separate sentences, and I would expect them to happen separately when evaluated by the App.  It could easily make a difference when interacting with Bee Bot.

“incidental contact”
this card says, “knife deals each target 1 energy damage.
knyfe may deal any target dealt damage this way an additional
1 energy damage”. this card works in a similar way to
tachyon’s “hypersonic assault”, in that the second sentence
isn’t meant to be a separate step, it just acts to modify the
first sentence.
So the proper way to deal with this card is to deal each
target 1 energy damage, and each time you do, decide whether
or not to deal an additional 1 energy damage before moving
on to the next target.

“hypersonic assault”
this card deals each non-hero target 1 sonic damage. any
target dealt damage this way cannot deal damage until the
start of your next turn.
some cards deal damage in response to having been damaged
(ambuscade’s “sonic mines” for example), and because the two
sentences on “hypersonic assault” are separated, it may seem
like the order of operations would go like this – tachyon
deals damage, the target card deals its damage back, and then
the second sentence kicks in saying that the targeted card
can’t deal any damage (now that it’s too late). However, that
second sentence is just meant to modify the damage being
done by the first sentence and there isn’t any separation
between the two operations. so the correct order would be - - tachyon deals damage, which causes any target damaged to
not be able to deal their damage, then when the targeted card
tries to deal its response damage, it can’t.

Korruption has an "then" in the middle.  Would that make it different from KNYFE's version?

That's a very good point. That does change it! Ignore moy original comment and go with the other option.

7

Actually, I agree that the "then" does make a difference, just wanted to point out that simply being two separate sentences does not.

What is nice is if Haka takes the damage for the entire party he only takes 1 from the second part.  If it worked like Incidental Contact he would take 1 and 1 for each hero target.

Yes, we played it that way with the sentinel look-alike from Enclave of the Endlings that absorbs everything (he took 6 damage, plus 1).

10

Okay, so if I understand it correctly, first the melee damage is dealt to all targets.  Then those affected by that damage get one additional toxic damage.  Sone in the Haka example, he would get hit for H points of melee and then 1 of toxic.

Thanks for the clarification.
