Barrier And smoke new rules qustion

[bairnt]

I'll apologies ahead if this has been covered already, but I searched the forums and couldn't find my answer. So the new PAC on Barrier and smoke cloud says the markers are removed at the beging of my turn (if i was using the power). if this power is countered or lost you still lose the markers like before right? Hope this makes sence

Yes. There is a section in the rule book that says that when a power is lost that the effects of it go away. or something like that.

Shoot, I think there was something wierd with this, but I would say no. If the ability is outwitted the effect should go away. Again though, I think there is something wierd wit this so don't take my word for it. Lets both wait and hope an orange sees this soon.

Yes, if you lose the power the smoke cloud markers would be removed. It's the same idea as if Outwit was lost, you'd immediately regain the power. When a power is lost, the effects of that power are lost. (I'm sure there is some exception that some smart-e-pants will chime in on)

Yes. There is a section in the rule book that says that when a power is lost that the effects of it go away. or something like that.

And here is the section of the rulebook to which Maraud refers.

From p. 15 of the Blackest Night Rulebook:
Whenever a power or combat ability is countered, or lost because it no longer appears in the stat slot on a character, all game effects generated by that power or ability immediately end....
