Extrala is wrong (Did you know, that ... (Part 91))

More ammo against Outside the hourglass, badly tested and written card...

Nope, the text is not so clear regarding the rules of this game.
the "inflict 2 damage" part had to be interpreted as "this vampire inflicts". Many people thought it was environmental damage at first glance.
Don't forget that this card had to be clarified the first week it went on the market...

Cards can break the rules, no problem with that, but it should be easy to understand its interactions with other cards -go ahead and tell me disarm is not a common occurence in combat...
The very creation of a step where "range is not yet known but ..." is the perfect example of the failure of wording this card properly.

Oh, yes, because nothing happen before range. I will remeber that the next time I tore a signpost.

I don't know for you, but Outside the hourglass was worded exactly like a regular strike, while environmental card was not. Outside the hourglass is ... crystal clear, it's more a case of Disarm being here from day one and alway having a strange wording.

There hasn't be any hard questions about Disarm before Outside the Hourglass. Problem is the rules. Adding this to rules would do a lot: Combat doesn't have a range until Determine Range part is over (or skipped). Any damage done before this is considered to done without range.

Or you could change Disarm and Pulled Fangs to work only close range.
