Hi, I really like the game this far and is looking forward to the art-version when the kickstarter arrives 🙂
however I’ve got a question about spending resolve as well - do I have to spend resolve if I can or can I choose to play a card I can’t afford?
Say I got a pool of 2 strength resolve left and I got one card that cost 2 strength, one card that costs 1 strength and lastly a card that cost 1 willpower. Can I choose to play the willpower card as a peril if I want?
In your example, you can play the willpower card as a peril. When you steel (and as a result play a card as a peril) you can divide any single remaining pool of resolve you have, even if that resolve doesn't match the one required by the card you're playing as a peril.
You can always do this unless you cannot steel your remaining heroes' resolve any further., i.e. the only resolve left on all of your heroes (or the remaining heroes) is 1/1/1/1 or less.
I hope that makes sense!
