I am trying to figure out how hate is used.
Page 144 states that "an adversary may use a fell ability in addition to attacking, so long as they have the necessary points to spend".
Does this mean that in addition to making an attack, an adversary can use 1 fell ability or as many as they have points to spend?
I read it as the former, because "a fell ability" is singular, but it's opened a conversation due to the High Elf ability "Might of the Firstborn" (which allows a player to cancel the effects of a hate/resolve fuelled ability).
Example: a Barrow-Wight attacks and then uses 1 hate point to cast Dark Sorcery. The High Elf player spends a point of Hope to cancel this. Can the LM continue to try to cast Dark Sorcery again and again so long as the Barrow-Wight has the hate points to do so OR is that his fell ability used for that turn?
Logic and the way it is written would dictate the latter, but it doesn't appear to be clear so i'd be interested in seeing how other people use Hate points - and in particular how they interact those abilities with the High Elf's ability to counter them.
