Rules Q&A
- Q: Greetings,
Being the stubborn lot that my players are, they have insisted that I ask the following questions. First off is Daidoji Ekiken vs A Test of Courage:
Daidoji Ekiken
Crane Clan Harrier * Samurai Reaction: Bow Ekiken after a personality with lower Chi assigns to attack one of your Provinces to send that Personality home. The Personality may not assign for the rest of the Attack Phase.
A Test of Courage
Reaction: Play this card when an action is moving one of your target Personalities out of battle. Cancel the action. You cannot bow the Personality to take actions or target the Personality with actions until after the turn.
Can the Test be used against Ekiken? I do not think so, due to the fact that when units are assigning, they are not in a battle just yet.
A: It's a close call, but I'm going to agree with you. Jeff Alexander, "post for 20 January 2003", 21 Jan 2003
