Can I spend an Outraged resource in Prelude even though I can't take its action?
The rulebook only bars the action; several experienced players, quoting the official FAQ, agree that spending without effect is allowed.

Yes. Outrage only forbids taking the resource's Prelude action; you can still spend the token without effect. You can't get the action another way either: a Guild card's New Action can't replace a standard action you couldn't take, though Loyal Guild cards that say to ignore Outrage do let you act. The resource can still be held, taxed, stolen and counted for ambitions.
