Hi

Can I play Cruishing Attack during a battle action segment if my army has 1 or more strength and without any opposing unit? Crushing Attack Battle: You may only play Crushing Attack if your army currently has more than twice as much total Force as the opposing army. The battle action phase ends (resolve any terrain, if applicable), and this battle is now resolved.

May I use Samurai's fury after Crushing Attack?

The Cards :

Crushing Attack Battle: You may only play Crushing Attack if your army currently has more than twice as much total Force as the opposing army. The battle action phase ends (resolve any terrain, if applicable), and this battle is now resolved.

A samurai's fury Reaction: After resolving Delayed Terrains (if any), target a Samurai you control at the current battlefield with more than 2 Chi: Take an Open or Battle action.

Thanks in advance,

Bye...............Rémi.

No. There must be an army.

May I use Samurai's fury after Crushing Attack?

No. The battle has resolved, which is past the point where Delayed Terrains resolve.
