The Smell Of Brains card question ?

Yes. But work me through the sequence.

I play the card, if they do not cancel it, before I roll the extra fight die OR they win the fight. The zombies move, and fight.

Let me try this question, maybe I have been playing wrong the whole time. Like taken over. I announce im playing taken over. If they cancel it, done. If they do not, I roll dice and place zombies. If they then want to cancel the card, they can cancel the taken over, but the zombies stay. right ?

Like if im fighting, play uuurg and roll dice. The card, or more directly the dice roll can not be cancelled. right ?

You sound like you're doing it right. Once you roll the number of zombies, there's no undoing it. (They could still cancel most Taken Over cards, but that'd only remove the token -- not the models.)

If they didn't cancel Urgh when you said you were going to play it, that's that.

It's a subtle but important technicality.

Hi, Thank you, yes. I agree "subtle but important technicality" It may seem like a cheezy thing but its the play sequence. Some times it really frustrates me. Yes, I expect every Zombie card I play to be cancelled, and if they dont. Yeah for me

I was going to ask about this card too. I wasn't sure if the zombies that move in if you successfully use this would fight right away or not. Good to know the answer now. Glad somebody beat me to asking it. ;-)
