Hey - I have a question about in what order boost cards apply in combat. I can see either of the below situations being the case:
Grom
Ability: Berserk - Roll +1 die in all rolls when wounded
Current Health: 5 (max)
Weapon: Frostbite (4 Attack)
Boost: Crushing Gauntlet (+2 dice to a Sword or Axe attack. This Hero takes 1 Wound)
Scenario 1:
Because Grom is at full health when he attacks with the sword, when the dice pool is built for his attack, he attacks with 6 dice (4 base + 2 from the boost)
Scenario 2:
Even though Grom is at full health, when he attacks with the sword, he takes 1 wound from Crushing Gauntlet which procs his ability meaning that when he builds his dice pool, he attacks with 7 Dice (4 base +2 from the boost + 1 from his ability)
To me it's a question of when the wound is taken? Is it taken when the Hero declares an attack (and builds a dice pool) or when the Hero attacks (when the dice are rolled). I am fairly new to the game so I could have a fundamental misunderstanding of the rules but this question came up in my most recent game.
Thanks to anyone who can answer this question!!!
