August 11, 2003: Defensive Anchor

Defensive Anchor

Tired of being pushed--er, pulled around? Try this Defensive Anchor; a handy item every warrior should consider carrying. With this pump, your opponents cannot force your gladiator to move to the action field. Cards like Snakes of Wrath, Unborn, Electro Chains, and Version 9 simply would have to choose another character. Of course, you can still retreat if you want as normal and cards like Thrasher Blade can still hit you if you don't.
Besides stopping your opponent from advancing your character, you can use the second ability to set the card and retreat your pumped-up gladiator--even if he is raging, as a positive action. Very useful to get those thick headed characters out of harm's way.
