9th Age super poison

So if my thinking is right, correct me if im not.
Can we run a 3+ poison

Skinks can have a 6+ in combat
Have the snake alter within 6 inchs (5+)
Cast putrifying touch (4+)
And have swarms in the same combat (3+)

Is this legal. If so it'll make our enemies think twice about our weak skink units

Hey @Okaman

From what I can tell, no, that doesn't work.

Specifically, the 'Skink' and 'Swarm' poisons don't stack. So if you had Swarms in the same combat that the Skinks were in, the Skinks would still poison on a 6+. Poison doesn't stack in general, it just so happens that the Snake Altar and Putrifying touch do say that they can stack.

Wish it did work the way you described though.

Damn thats a shame. Still a 4+ with skinks and a 5+ with saurus is good fun
