This game up in a game yesterday, and wanted to see if I could get definite clarification. Kazdan states his reinforcements are placed adjacent. If he is totally surrounded, can he place reinforcements at all? Can he place a huge if there is no way to get a huge adjacent to him? If it is not truly "adjacent", but rather "as close as possible" ... oh my, this will be an interesting abuse ploy :)

If they are unable to be placed adjacent, they can be placed as close as possible.

And remember, Surprise move happens before the reserves are placed, but after you know you are getting them. It you are clever, there is a lot you can "abuse" with this situation, especially with the junk golem.

So you do realize how utterly broken this can be, yes? Situation... you use surprise move to move KP forward into a narrow hallway. Now you can place a huge forward potentially a significant distance as it can't be "adjacent", thus allowing you to effectively beam in a huge halfway across the map. Not hard to do. He is already a pretty ridiculous piece... this makes him... well... dog-nuts.

Are you absolutely certain that's the ruling? There is no hint whatsoever of this on the card.

Yes I am positive. I am also pretty sure its in the mini-FAQ (rules hotlist) sticky on wotc forums.

Horrifying. On the bright side, I think that's defined what my next tournament squad will be... :)

Wow that's just cheesy. Good thing it's only reserves 30. If you culd do this with the TTD it'd be nasty.
