Rulings
- Q: Akodo Quehao is a Sensei. Can I start the game with him in play? Can he be targeted with things like Amnesia? A: No and no. "Reserved game terms ... do not count as traits; they only apply if their definitions are met" (The Spirit Wars rulebook, p. 31). General card classes, like "Follower," "Holding," and "Sensei," are reserved game terms. Anything that refers to Sensei is talking about that class, not cards with the Sensei trait. The Imperial Herald, Issue 17, p. 40
Rules Q&A
- Q: Example (pretty close to actual gameplay): I have used Secrets on the Wind on Akodo Quehao. I pull out Kolat Assassin, targeting him. Quehao is being destroyed while dishonored, and is due to cause his controller 3 points of honor loss.
QUESTION 1: Can his controller announce that Quehao will commit seppuku in response to the Assassin, reducing the honor loss to 1?
A: Nope. His death is not a valid trigger for seppuku. Vaughn Derderian, "Rules for", 12 Jan 2001
