Rules Q&A
- Q: Darkness Unleashed: Would Darkness Unleashed create a ranged 0 for the no entering-play honor loss?
A: Yes. The glossary entry for "Entering play honor loss" has been updated to clarify such situations.
http://rules.l5r.com/Glossary_E#Enterin ... Honor_loss: "The highest amount of Honor loss caused by any one trait on a card that is triggered by it entering play, or zero if there is no such trait on the card." (Emphasis added on the new bit.)
