Rules Q&A
- Q: A few obscure rule questions:
1) Does a weapon provide a force bonus or something else? How would Hida Saiyuki's trait interact with him being given a weapon, under the same rule how would weapon equipped personalities be affected by effects that negate bonuses and penalties? This one has been answered elsewhere
2) Can actions from fortifications be used during battles at other provinces? Example I have a Kaiu-Built Defenses on one of my provinces, can I use it's ranged attack while attacking my opponent's province? During battles at my other provinces?
3) Which units do ranged/melee/fear actions come from if they're from a strategy? I'm asking this because I'm wondering how they can be combined with other attacks from a unit. Does it make a difference if the strategy requires you bowing a personality/follower or weapon? (examples: Fearful Volley, the Fear attack for the 1st situation and the ranged attack for the 2nd)
A: Not that obscure!
2. As per Fortification: During a battle, abilities on a Fortification can only be used if the Fortification is attached to the current battlefield’s Province.
3. Actions which come from a Strategy... come from that Strategy! They don't come from any cards they target, and so cannot be combined. See From. Alex Jones, "A few obscure rule questions", 12 May 2015 - Q: When you annouce a action with multiple abilites, like Fearful Volley, do you have to annouce with ability you plan on using before interrupts take place?
A: Yes.
Part of announcing an action involves specifying which ability you are using if the card the ability is on has multiple abilities.
This was how it was in previous arc rule sets, and will not be changing. look for it in the full Ivory Edition CR document to be posted soon. Ben Higgins, "Annoucing actions", 16 Mar 2014
