Full Version: Cancelling zombies cards not 'Remains in Play'

I know the rules say that Zombie cards cannot be cancelled "once dice have been rolled" and I understand this for Fight: cards. But can you use a Hero card 'cancel a Zombie card' option on zombie 'Remains in Play' cards?

Some Hero card actions specify 'Remains in Play' for cancelling, but not all. So I guess I'm asking if the 'cancel any zombie card' action specifically means 'any Fight: zombie card' before dice are rolled?

Often there's a die roll requirement to cancel so I've been playing 'cancel any zombie card including Fight: and Remains in Play'.

Sorry if this is obvious, but I've been away from LNOE too long and the memory fades.
Yes, if the ability is not otherwise limited then it can cancel any zombie card...Fight, Remains In Play, etc.
Yes, you can. The "Cancel a remains in play" is a specific limitation on that card that it can only cancel those that remain in play (and not, e.g., a Fight: card.)
Thanks for the reply mqstout. A further clarification is given on my BGG post:
