Rules Q&A
- Q: If I have Ogre Bushi out with the Family Sword attached can I use its action to transfer the sword to Ogre Bob?
Thanks in advance.
A: Since you asked for it, Az, here's the plain English version:
"Ogre" is the name of the species, it's not a family name.
(I could also point out that "Bushi" is an occupation, so neither part of the card's title fits the "Family Name + Given Name" format.) Alex Jones, "Ogre Bushi + Family Sword", 9 May 2014
