Q: dewindraig Dragon Staff

[jereme]

The Dewindraig's Dragon Staff "acts as a host banner in all respects" and "the Dewindraig gains the 'Host Banner Bearer' ability. This leads me to a few questions:
1. if I have multiple dewindraig in a host, are they all 'Host Banner Bearers'?
2. Can I upgrade the Dragon Staff with banner artefacts?

Good point - you can only have one. I'll have to add a caveat about multiples.

2. Can I upgrade the Dragon Staff with banner artefacts?

Another good point. No, you can't - I'll address that too...

Two more questions, moving toward silly:
1. can I muster a dewindraig as a host banner bearer?
2. if I muster a prifdyndraig as a host banner bearer, how does that affect the Dragon Staff?

Yes, because the Dragon Staff gives him that ability.

2. if I muster a prifdyndraig as a host banner bearer, how does that affect the Dragon Staff?

I'm not quite sure what you mean - it doesn't change anything about the Dragon Staff? It's the staff that gives him the ability.

Although, if you replace the staff, he can't be a host banner bearer, I guess... so that would have to be removed from him.

Some very interesting questions here - keep 'em up Jereme! I realise this is how technical the online musterererererer will have to be of course...

I think I meant something like "If I muster a prifdyndraig as a host banner bearer, can I still muster a dewindraig as a sorcerer?"

[jereme]

If, in the end, I'm limited to a single dewindraig because the dragonstaff makes him a host banner bearer, can you move "The Honoured Dead" to be a noble option?

Of course, they're not mutually exclusive.

Well - I'm not quite sure why you're thinking a host banner bearer can't be a sorcerer as well. Is there something I'm missing?

Muster Rule 1.1.7.1.1 states "Only one host champion, host banner bearer, host herald, and host paymaster may be present in a host".

I know that - you can have two dewindraigs, but only one can be a host banner bearer. Is that what you're aiming at?

That's what I'm aiming for. Is this accurate: regardless of the number of models with the Host Banner Bearer ability, only one can serve that role.

Yes, that's absolutely correct.
