AA doesn't ignore defensive measures such as Shields. Is there anything in particular that made you think it might? James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Came up in a game recently.. I figured should get shields.. my opponent questioned it.. couldn't find anything in rules to say no.. thought I would check.. thanks for the response.
