  If I destroy a province or personality in battle resolution are the honor gains from military Alliance and Akodo Dairuku during the resolution segment and doubled by Legendary Victory?
  A: The province is destroyed during the Resolution Segment, so that is when the honour gain from Military Alliance occurs, doubled by Legendary Victory.
  Similarly, the enemy army is destroyed during the Resolution Segment, so that is when the honour gain from Akodo Dairuko occurs, doubled by Legendary Victory. Alex Jones, "Legendary Victory", 19 Jun 2015
