Rules Q&A
- Q: Glory of the Shogun has resolved and I would like to attach a Ceremonial Armor on a personnality costing 9G. The Armor costs 3G when attaching to such a personnality. (Can I) draw a card due to the effect of Glory of the Shogun if I attached an item which actually costs 7G but which I paid 3G.
A: Glory of the Shogun looks for the cost at the time of payment. No.
Correction: Been brought to my attention that there is a difference between "Gold cost" and "Gold Cost", which changes the answer. See viewtopic.php?f=59&t=66224. Zen Faulkes, "Glory of the Shogun and reduced costs", 28 Jan 2008
