If a unit with 3 printed might at Trifarian War Camp gets Smoke Screened, does it have 1 or 2 might?
Ruling: The unit has 1 might. Smoke Screen snapshots the unit's might at 4 (3 base + 1 from War Camp), then reduces it by 3, resulting in 1 might (3 + 1 - 3 = 1).
Sequence:
- War Camp's passive ability applies first, giving the unit +1 might (total 4 might)
- Smoke Screen sees the unit at 4 might and snapshots a -3 reduction
- Final calculation: 3 base + 1 (War Camp) - 3 (Smoke Screen) = 1 might
- The unit keeps +1 from War Camp as long as it remains there and -3 from Smoke Screen until end of turn
Nuances:
- If the unit moves off War Camp afterward, it will have 0 might (3 base - 3 from Smoke Screen)
- Both War Camp and Smoke Screen are in the arithmetic layer, with increases applied before decreases in layering rules
- The layering order doesn't change the final result because Smoke Screen snapshots the modified value
