Book of the Skull: After 3 hammers have been equipped to friendly characters, friendly characters may be given a power action to exchange one equipped hammer with the equipped hammer of another friendly character.


If characters who have hammers equipped are K.O.ed, do the hammers still count as being equipped? I am thinking that they are not since the characters aren't on the map and therefore the hammers are no longer equipped. Am I right?

They have still been equipped for counting purposes, if that is what you mean.

I equip Asgardian Troll, I equip Thule Priest, and I equip Splitlip.

Three hammers have been equipped to friendly characters, and no amount of those three characters dying horrific deaths will change that fact.

If Thule priest gets wiped out it won't prevent me from giving the Asgardian Troll a power action to trade hammers with Splitlip.

I was just wondering this except I was going to ask about the 4 hammers.

I'm curious about this also. Can we get an official ruling?

This has been ruled on, I believe including "official" confirmation, already. If you search this forum you should be able to find it.

Yep. Post #2 is correct.

Yes, hammers need to be equipped to a character, but after that it doesn't matter what happens to the character / hammer. A hammer "has been equipped". You could feasibly have one character left using Power Cosmic through his 2 hammers.
