Rules Q&A
- Q: Hello,
If I negate an action with Severed from the Emperor and i have a Shrine of the Colonies in play, will I lose 5 honor or 4 honor?
Cheers!
Severed from the Emperor: You cannot win an Honor Victory or control the Imperial Favor. You have the ability, "Repeatable Interrupt: Negate a Favor action after it targets your cards (the Imperial Favor is still discarded). Lose 5 Honor."
Shrine of the Colonies: Reduce all Honor losses from your cards by 1, to a minimum of 1.
I mainly ask because I don't know if me losing 5 honor is a requirement of the interrupt. or after I lose 5, I can reduce to 4.
A: You'll only lose 4. There's no need to lose the full 5 for Severed from the Emperor's negation effect to occur. Jon Palmer, "Shrine of the Colonies + Severed from the Emperor", 9 Apr 2015
