Question

I have a couple of questions about the new Remy lebeau card. With Thief Extraordinaire, Do I need to pick a scheme to remove the threat from before I see what the top two cards of the encounter deck are? I couldn’t find anything that says you target a scheme from the beginning of a thwart. And if I have a confused status card on Remy, and I try to use Thief Extraordinaire, which is a (thwart), Do I still get to look at the top two cards of the encounter deck and discard one?

Answer

  • No, you aren’t required to determine a scheme before looking at the top two cards of the encounter deck.
  • And yes, when you are Confused and you attempt a Thwart, you must pay all costs of the Thwart and then replace the effect of the ability with the removal of Confused. So while Confused as Remy, you’d do everything before the cost arrow (exhausting, looking at top 2, discarding 1) and then replace the removal of threat with the discarding of Confused.
