<p>Some cards (e.g. <a href="https://aember-forge.com/card/anger" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Anger</a> - &quot;Ready and fight with a friendly creature.&quot;) say to do multiple things. What if not all of those things are possible (e.g. if my opponent has no creatures for me to fight) - can I still play the card? Does it do anything?</p>

Andrew Vandever, do you think it is legal to replace the photo of the card with picture from aember forge ( https://aember-forge.com/card/search )?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-11-14)

Some cards (e.g. [Anger](https://aember-forge.com/card/anger) - "Ready and fight with a friendly creature.") say to do multiple things. What if not all of those things are possible (e.g. if my opponent has no creatures for me to fight) - can I still play the card? Does it do anything?

Yes! From the [rulebook](https://images-cdn.fantasyflightgames.com/filer_public/51/f9/51f978e8-a62f-4a53-a246-912893396a05/keyforge_rulebook_v7_for_webcompressed.pdf), page 7:

If there is one or more valid fight targets, your chosen creature fights one of them. But any one of these bits fizzling doesn't prevent the others from happening. If there are no valid targets, you still get to ready a friendly creature. If you have no exhausted creatures, you can still have one of your ready creatures fight as a result of Anger.
