It can only move. It's basically overriding part of the restriction, but not all of it. First Strike is the other side of the coin, allowing a unit to attack its first turn but not move.

When facing the Scion, did you forget to add 4 Bains to the 6 you had earned, from each Vesuvian units remaining in the.stack When your encampment moves onto thee Scion event, gain a bane for each unit remaining in the Vesuvian faction stack - as per started on the Vesuvia arena card. Your bain track had amassed to 6 bains, so an additional 4 making 10 would have meant 9 health (allowing for the 1 blessing remaining) to each bad boy coming out, not 5. Is this not correct?

Who would he target and try to move to in that case, the Hero (because it's higher on the priority list) or the Strongest opponent (because it's closer)?
