Question

I wanted to confirm how something works in the Kang scenario. The insert says that while players are in separate play areas, play still proceeds in turn order and the first player token is passed at the end of the villian phase. That’s all good but what were not sure on is during the villian phase when players are in separate game areas with their own Kang villain. Does each step of the villian phase happen one at a time or each step all in a row for each player? For example Does the game add 1 threat to the player 1 main scheme and then Kang activates against player 1 and then player 1 is dealt an encounter card and then player 1 resolves the encounter card. Repeat these steps for player 2 then 3 then 4. OR Does the game add 1 threat to every players main scheme, then starting with the first player, you take turns resolving the Kang activation in each players play area, then starting with the first player, deal each player an encounter card, then starting with the first player, each player resolves their encounter card?

Answer

When playing stages 2A/3A in the Kang scenario, players should resolve each individual step of the villain phase in turn order. So, each player should place threat on their main scheme in turn order, then each player should resolve the activation of the Kang in their game area in turn order, then each player should be dealt an encounter card in turn order and resolve it in turn order.
