Blob - Appetite For Destruction and Action Dice

Hi,

Blob - Appetite for Destruction’s game-text reads:

When fielded, choose an opposing card, cancelling all previous choices. Your opponent may not purchase or field that card's dice until Blob leaves the Field Zone.

Please can you clarify how he interacts with your opponent’s Action Dice please?

1. Do Action Dice “Field” when used in the main step?
2. If so; can Blob therefore target an opponent’s action card?
3. If not; can Blob still target an Action card to prevent its purchasing, even if he can not prevent its use?
4. Is there a distinction between standard Action dice and “Continuous Dice”, as “Continuous” Actions could be argued as “fielded”?

Thanks in advance :)

Blob can target action cards in addition to character cards. Only Continuous actions and Gear actions are “fielded.” Thus, if Blob targets an action card, your opponent cannot purchase that die, and cannot use the die if it is a Continuous or Gear action die. Blob would not prevent the use of a non-Continuous or non-Gear die, however.
