Everdell Emerland - Academy Card
Hey everyone, quick rules clarification regarding the Academy card:
Base effect: "Gain back your [Worker] from 1 location."
Upgraded effect: "Gain back your [Worker] and [Helper] from 1 location."
My question is about the quantity returned:
Does the base effect return just one single worker, or all of your workers at that chosen location? Similarly, when upgraded, do you bring back 1 worker + 1 helper, or all workers and helpers stationed there?
The reason I'm asking is because of the helper board state. If you only recall 1 worker (or 1 worker + 1 helper) from a spot that has multiple helpers (e.g., Guide + Negotiator), recalling only a portion could leave remaining helper(s) stranded alone on a location (like a green spot) without a worker. Since helpers normally cannot be placed or exist alone, does that create an illegal board state? How does that work with blocking other players, like do they now have to bring negotiator?
Or is the card intended to clear all your figures from that single location in one go? Bringing everything back felt strong at first glance, but considering it's a one-time activation, it might be the intended resolution.
Has anyone run into this or seen an official clarification? Thanks!
