Minions are additional enemies that nemeses may spawn during the course of the game. The breach mages must choose wisely when to destroy the minions and when to maintain focus on the nemesis itself. Minions have additional effects that activate on the nemesis' turn.
Rules[]
- Place summoned minions onto the table in the order they've been summoned. Place life tokens/life dice on the minion to track it's life total. If the minion has an IMMEDIATE effect, resolve it when the minion first enters play.
- All minions resolve their PERSISTENT effects on the nemesis' main phase. They must activate in order of minion least recently to most recently summoned.
- Some minions provide an multiple options of effects. They players may choose which effect will occur each time the minion it is the nemesis' main phase; however, if one effect cannot activate, the players must choose the other option.
- Minions are discarded from play the moment their life is reduced to zero, regardless whose turn/phase it is.
