Begin Activation by activating one enemy.

To activate an enemy, take one enemy card from the top of any enemy deck and place it in the active area. If the activated enemy has the additional enemies icon, repeat this process, activating one enemy at a time.

If any of the additional enemies also have icons, those must be resolved as well.

In Tainted Grail, when you place an activated enemy in the active area, leave space to its right for additional cards. This is where you will place combat cards.

You cannot activate enemies from the Menhir Stack.

If the Menhir Stack contains eight or more enemies at the start of Activation, you must activate the boss instead of an enemy from an enemy deck.
