Eros vs Eris glitch?

Post by MWM1 »

I always thought that you cannot hand your opponent a win by virtue of a move you make while controlling one of their pieces. In a recent game, though, Eros won when Eris moved him to an L1 next to his other piece on an L1. Is this supposed to be how it works?

I have the Roxley app, and I don't think it works that way on the app.

Todi thinks this interaction is correct and I tend to agree though it feels wrong.

"Hmmm. Initially thought it was a bug...

Eros states:

_Win Condition: You also win if one of your Workers moves to a space neighboring your other Worker and both are on the first level (or the same level in a 3-player game)._

Eris states:

_You may move and build with an opponent's worker this turn instead of your own, as long as it is not their worker that they most recently moved._


Hence the condition for Eros to win is that Eros' **worker** needs to **MOVE**.

Since Eris takes **Eros' worker** and **moves** it, it seems to me the winning condition is triggered."
