There's a gold card that marks a target agent as safe. Someone used the blue slow neutralize target agent card on one of mine, so I popped the gold safety surprise card on it. From what I understood, safety meant it wouldn't be neutralized. But it was. Even though my card had the safe symbol on it as it was neutralized. Is that a glitch or am I misunderstanding how that is supposed to work?

It's the exception to the rule. Under arrest is stronger than other kinds of attacks, so it overrides safety. You just have to remember for future I'm afraid.

It's simple. Safe prevents neutralise. Go read under arrest - it says ERASE, which is removed from play and NOT a neutralise. So safe can't prevent under arrest.

Yeh, that's the official jargon for what I said

Right now there aren't too many erase cards. The only other I can think of is Animus Reboot.

Under arrest works on Silvio. Done it plenty of times.

Oh ok, I'm just remembering wrong then. Sorry, I have a horrible memory. Lethal doses of Adderall wouldn't even help me in that area, lol.

A 3rd card can erase Agents on the field. I let you search which one.

It's important to learn and understand that in CCGs - most terms are "specific" - ie, carries out a specific function. Game designers always try to use as little words as possible; KISS (Keep it simple, stupid!) Just as "Official" and "Threat" have specific meanings, so does "Safe" and "Erase". Knowing the specifics, ie. the ins and outs, of game terms will prevent confusion, make anyone a better player and make the whole game experience better. Good thread on terms: acreedrecollection.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=faq&action=display&thread=477&page=1Enjoy!

@bronto, gonna look that up now, lol. @raphael, I've read that page before but I'm glad you mentioned it again. I've noticed it seems like I'm doing worse more recently...I may not actually be doing worse, I dunno. I think I just need to review some of the posts I've already seen and look at a few of the advanced topics. With the market making more cards available and me becoming a little too comfortable with Nobles, I need to expand my knowledge/understanding more. Thanks!

Uberto Alberti erases agents. I don't really place exit stage right - does it put the initial agent in the archive?

Due to AH, everyone has more access to cards that they need and hence some of them already has ideas/decks that they want to carry out once AH is up. Since it has arrived, they wasted no time in building and playing with those decks. I would expect things/decks/meta to stabilize soon but it's an exciting time now.
