And Now For A Word From The Vanguard R&D Department!!
For Today’s Card, we’re introducing 2 《Royal Paladin》 Support Cards from the Character Booster “TRY3 NEXT” (on sale December 9th, 2016):
• The Grade 2 “Spirited Knight, Romus”
• The Grade 1 “Knight of Sharpness, Paris”
“Spirited Knight, Romus”, if you have an “Alfred” Vanguard when it is placed on the Rear-guard Circle from the Deck, gains Power+5000! It works especially well with “Knight of Twin Sword” who can Call Grade 2s from your Deck. And if “Knight of Sharpness, Paris” is a Rear-guard alongside it, and it attacks the Vanguard, it gains Power+2000. In short, it’s possible for a baseline Attack involving it to go up to 16000.
“Knight of Sharpness, Paris” Supports Stride while in the hand. If you have an “Alfred” Vanguard, when you pay the cost of Stride, it’s treated as a Grade 2 card! And when it’s discarded from the hand for the cost of Stride, and you have a “Spirited Knight, Romus”, you’ll be able to Call this card to a Rear-guard Circle, then draw 1 card, and gain Power+3000! Its baseline Power rises to 10000. Use the Auto ability of “Aerial Divine Knight, Altmile” to Call “Romus”, then use the ability of “Paris” well. If you call “Romus and “Paris” to the same Column, you’ll be able to launch a 26000 Power Attack! It’s good to put both “Romus” and “Paris” together in a Deck!
“TRY3 NEXT contains other “Alfred” Support. An “Alfred” Grade 3 Unit appears, so look forward to it. And, today’s “Weekly Vanguard News Bits NEXT” will be introducing a 《Royal Paladin》 ace card, so be sure to check it out!

Q. If there isn’t a “Spirited Knight, Romus” as a Rear-guard, I discard “Knight of Sharpness, Paris” for the cost of Stride. Afterwards, using the Stride Skill of “Blue Sky Knight, Altmile”, if I Superior Call “Spirited Knight, Romus” from my hand, can I activate the “Call this Card as a Rear-guard, Draw 1 Card, then during that turn, this Unit gains Power+3000.” ability of “Knight of Sharpness, Paris”?
A. Yes, it’s possible.
First you the “When this card is discarded from the hand for the Cost of Stride” effect of “Knight of Sharpness, Paris” resolves at the same time as the Stride Skill of “Blue Sky Knight, Altmile”, both effects are placed into Effect Resolution Standby State. Resolve the effect of “Blue Sky Knight, Altmile”, and then since you resolve the effect of “Knight of Sharpness, Paris”, due to the timing of that effect’s resolution, “Spirited Knight, Romus” is now a Rear-guard, you’ll be able to activate the ability of “Knight of Sharpness, Paris”.
