Rules Q&A
- Q: If I target my opponent's 1 chi personality with the printed abilities of both Asahina Hirakane and Tairao and he is foolish enough to then attack me, do I then gain 2 honor (assuming he doesn't play uncertainty or a similar effect in the meantime)?
A: You do not. Assignment is not considered to be during "a battle" - "a battle" is what takes place at a battlefield, and you haven't gotten to that step yet. Jon Palmer, "Asahina Hirakane + Tairao", 4 Jul 2015
