Rulings
- Although it self-destructs before any costs or effects occur, the Personality created is a valid target for actions, and locks in the targeting selection. [JA, 25 March 2003] Rules Archive, August 18, 2007, p. 11
Rules Q&A
- Q: If it's an effect: 1) Can you play Overwhelmed if you have Cowardly Conscripts in the battle?
A: Yes. You target them and they go away, so the destruction doesn't happen, but that's alright because it doesn't need to. Jeff Alexander, "post for 28 October 2002", 29 Oct 2002
