Question

I have a question regarding the card “Henchman Heist” from the Sinister Motives Expansion. The text on this Side Scheme is “Forced Response: After any amount of Threat is removed from this scheme, place an equal amount of threat on the main scheme.” Question: Will this Forced Response happen, if I remove the last threat from the side scheme? Or is it defeated before the Forced Response triggers? Regarding to this topic: There is a table in the reference rules 1.6 on page 14 regarding timing of damage. Can we assume a similar table regarding Threat?

Answer

No, the Forced Response on Henchmen Heist will not trigger when it’s defeated. The Response window would occur after Henchmen Heist was already discarded from play.
