When attacking with a 2 might unit buffed by Imperial Decree into a battlefield with two 10 might units, can you split the damage 1 and 1 to kill both units?

Ruling: No, you cannot split the damage to kill both units. You must assign damage equal to a unit's Might before assigning damage to other units, and Imperial Decree does not modify the concept of Lethal Damage.

Sequence:

  • Assign damage normally (must assign damage equal to the unit's Might before moving to next unit)
  • Imperial Decree triggers after damage is assigned and when damage is actually dealt

Nuances:

  • Even though Imperial Decree reduces enemy Might to 1, this does not change the damage assignment rules
  • Lethal damage is defined as damage greater than or equal to the unit's Might
