A player, 10 May 2007

My opponent uses the Shogun's right hand to make my Shinbone warrior singular. I then play a Shinbone Pack. If I pay 2 gold to use my Shinbone pack's search abilty what happens:

1) Nothing, the action fails as no warriors can enter play

2) My Shinbone warrior tries to enter play, fails and is discarded

3) My Shinbone warrior tries to enter play, fails and dies

4) my shinbone warrior enters play and stays there

Shinbone pack

Ratling • Broken Shinbone Tribe • Creature

May not challenge or be challenged.

May not be brought into play by Battle actions.

Open: Pay 2 Gold: Search your Dynasty deck, then discard pile, for a Shinbone Warrior. Bring it into play at this location, ignoring costs.

The entering play effect is negated due to the Singular conflict.
