When Yellow Darius dies in combat and Recruit tokens that had his +1 Might buff each have 1 damage marked on them, do the tokens die immediately or survive?

Answer

Ruling: The tokens survive with lethal damage marked on them. During the Resolution Step, only Darius is removed as he's the only one with lethal damage at that moment. Before the next cleanup, all marked damage is removed from all units at all locations, so the tokens survive.

Sequence:

  • During Resolution Step, Darius dies from lethal damage
  • Tokens now have 1 Might with 1 damage marked (lethal damage)
  • Before the next cleanup occurs, all marked damage is removed from all units
  • Tokens survive

Nuances:

  • There is uncertainty about whether this is the intended behavior, and a rules revision may address this specific case in the future
  • The only way to take advantage of the brief window where tokens have lethal damage would be to use an ability immediately to boost their Might
