I read that as can only be affected by crew card attacks.

The question about what he does when you time trap your last crew is an interesting one... I think he stays around waiting for it to reappear. His card says he goes to the bottom of the deck when all opponent crew have been killed.

I can see the argument for the other side too... sounds like a house rule to me.

I say let him wait out the time trap... he is a C10 afterall.

-This seems awfully darn straightforward. He's immune to everything aside from crew card attacks. That means if whatever comes after the start of the question "Is he immune to..." is not the 3-word phrase "crew card attacks", the answer is yes, he is immune. Nothing else can touch him except the crew card attack.

As for the function of going away, unless the crew is killed, the C10 waits around by the rule printed ont he card. Clear language, plain meaning and all that. As with any card, however, you can always house rule it (and someone probably will) to whatever gimped or suped-up wording you want.....Lobo

I agree there should be a consolidation of 'mechanics' but since we're not getting paid to do that... I'm not likely to care enough to work it out.

So long as Lobo and I can agree on what it does that is good enough for me.

-Assuming the C4 Marine's ability is a "crew card attack", then yes, a C4 marine can kill/discard it as it is not immune to that.

Unfortunately, with the company behind GE no longer around, even revised language on cards is not clear when compared to some of the rulings. For instance, the word "must" is generally a condition on CCG card plays that just has to be met for the card to work. Thus, a clear and plain ruling on something like Planet of Ill Repute would say if you don't have crew to discard, you cannot fire upon it. Easy, simple. If that wasn't intended, one would hope a later reprinting of the card would change/remove the word "must" as it is misleading.

I'm in favor of the 'crew card action' interpretation. It simplifies working out the rules interactions.

Also, if a Time Skip, Time Warp or Time Trap is used to remove the last remaining crew from play (even if temporarily), that should trigger the removal of the Primordial Warrior.

The dragon would be the basis of the stack with the molting on it, like equipment on a ship. But i do agree playing a skip to the molting works.

Why would the dragon go with the nest, it is played on the terrain to gain the benefits of the terrain, if you took the terrain with the skip the dragon would not get the benefits anymore but still be there. So if you shoot the terrain out the dragon still lives.
