Can you make an exertion in your MD/MD phase?

[ultra]

i know players can exert for something specific, like recovering from Prone or Disarm,

but can someone Exert for nothing in the Must Do/May Do phase?

And you can vote.

Thanks.

Yes - you can do it for illusion or fill a cost (example pestilence for Kronos)

Forgot another good example. Dark Duncan - if you do it for illusion, you can use the Kern illusion to nullify a location

hmmmm , yea can call a fake "i try to exert for illusions". ok. so it's legit.

Dark Ducan with plot out I did this all the time, as you can Nef illusion to make opponent prone to reduce ability for capture cards- but mostly saw this with 4 horsemen and Kronos starting with pestilence out.
