question for jeff a.

In a battle Player A has one peep and Player B has one peep. These units are opposed. PA's peep is bowed. PB's is not bowed. What happens if PA plays encircled terrain and then both players pass?

Player A cannot select his one unit as the one to remain, since that would be targeting it with his own action. Player B's unit would be selected and stay while Player A's is sent home.

Multiplayer Counterattacks

Can a defensive ally play a Counterattack?

The MRP says you have to be the Defender. Allies aren't the Defender.
