And no first turn immunity, and v judge hersey was the best flurry incap

I am very unconvinced that stairs and ladders are game effects that are activated at all.
That's getting close to saying that any two squares being adjacant is a game effect triggered by movement.

They just need to word effects that trigger on movement to trigger on movement from the character's own action. Which they have started to do.

So, I mind control a character, that character Kos a piece, I don't score victory points?

Sure you do, but the character that used Mind Control isn't the one that KO'd that character, it was the mind controlled character that did it.

I think what some posts in this thread are missing is that the rules for knockback are what tell you to stop in situations involving elevated terrain.

Whether or not a character can legally move up or down stairs/ladders is irrelevant; the rules say to stop and don't make any exception for stairs/ladders.

Very briefly. For one PAC only (i think 2010) Battle Fury protected against Possession
