Creature - Human Rogue {R}: Tap target Wall.1
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 10/4/2004: This ability may be used to tap more than one Wall per turn if you have enough mana, since tapping isn’t part of the activation cost.

Illus. Jeff A. Menges
Artifact Creature - Construct At the beginning of your combat phase, Battering Ram gains banding until end of combat. (Any creatures with banding, and up to one without, can attack in a band. Bands are blocked as a group. If any creatures with banding you control are being blocked by a creature, you divide that creature's combat damage, not its controller, among any of the creatures it's blocking.) Whenever Battering Ram becomes blocked by a Wall, destroy that Wall at end of combat.1
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 10/1/2008: If a creature with banding attacks, it can team up with any number of other attacking creatures with banding (and up to one nonbanding creature) and attack as a unit called a "band." The band can be blocked by any creature that could block a single creature in the band. Blocking any creature in a band blocks the entire band. If a creature with banding is blocked, the attacking player chooses how the blockers' damage is assigned.
- 10/1/2008: A maximum of one nonbanding creature can join an attacking band no matter how many creatures with banding are in it.
- 10/1/2008: Creatures in the same band must all attack the same player or planeswalker.
- 10/1/2009: If a creature in combat has banding, it's controller assigns damage for creatures blocking or blocked by it. That player can ignore the damage assignment order when making this assignment.

Illus. Tom Wänerstrand
Artifact Remove Bronze Tablet from your deck before playing if you're not playing for ante. Bronze Tablet enters the battlefield tapped. {4}, {T}: Exile Bronze Tablet and target nontoken permanent an opponent owns. That player may pay 10 life. If he or she does, put Bronze Tablet into its owner's graveyard. Otherwise, that player owns Bronze Tablet and you own the other exiled card.1
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 10/4/2004: If using a copy of the Tablet, you must trade the copy card to your opponent just like you would have traded the Tablet.
- 10/4/2004: You can't choose to pay 10 life if you have less than 10 life, but you may choose to give up the game immediately. This has roughly the same effect.
- 10/4/2004: You can take control of your opponent's Tablet and in the trade you only have to give them back their Tablet.
- 10/4/2004: If the card being targeted by the Bronze Tablet is removed before Tablet takes effect, then the Tablet ability is countered and it remains tapped.
- 10/4/2004: If the tablet is not still on the battlefield when the ability resolves, it is not exiled, and the exchange fails to happen. You don't get the other player's card.
- 8/1/2008: If the tablet is not still on the battlefield when the ability resolves, it is not exiled. The othe player still has the choice to pay 10 life, and you still become the owner of their card if they choose not to do so.

This ability can't cause the total number of +1/+0 counters on Clockwork Avian to be greater than four. Activate this ability only during your upkeep.1

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

Artifact As Cursed Rack enters the battlefield, choose an opponent. The chosen player's maximum hand size is four.1
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 10/4/2004: The effect of lowering the maximum hand size makes it so the player discards down to 4 cards (instead of the usual 7) during the cleanup step.
- 10/4/2004: You choose one opposing player just as this card is entering the battlefield and it only affects that one player. This choice is not changed even if this card changes controllers. It becomes useless but stays on the battlefield if the chosen player leaves the game.
- 10/1/2009: If multiple effects modify your hand size, apply them in timestamp order. For example, if you put Null Profusion (an enchantment that says your maximum hand size is two) onto the battlefield and then a player puts Cursed Rack onto the battlefield choosing you, your maximum hand size will be four. However, if those permanents entered the battlefield in the opposite order, your maximum hand size would be two.
