That would have given that player 14 energy (in this case), and only spending 2 himself.I managed to argue that the text of Monster Batteries says "when you purchase it, put as many E as you want from your reserve blah blah blah", and that since he was purchasing it, he had to follow that.
Which I felt was fair - I had just lost 7 energy. For the buyer to gain twice that seemed a bit much.
I dont expect finely balanced gameplay, its all a bit silly for that, but still....
