Rules Q&A

• Q: Pretty sure I know the answer, but I want to make sure.
  Cards:
  Suitengu's Torch Reaction: After you announce a Thunder Battle action: Its effects will not be negated or delayed. Battle: Choose your performing unbowed Personality and target an enemy Personality: Move him home.
  Moshi Ino Battle: Ino summons a storm. After the next action not performed by a Thunder Personality resolves this battle, the player who took it chooses to discard a card or bow the performer. You may take an additional Battle action.
  Scenario: A player uses Moshi Ino's action and decides to take the additional action. They decide to use the Battle action on Suitengu's Torch.
