Rules Q&A
- Q: A Personality with 3 base Personal Honor(PH) has 4 PH while in play. If this personality is destroyed, I want to use Funeral Rites.
A: All of these questions boil down to, "When does Funeral Rites check the Personal Honor stat?" To which the answer is, "After one of your personalities is destroyed" (card text). Bonuses rarely apply to out of play cards, so this usually means the base (printed) Personal Honor is checked. Zen Faulkes, "Utaku Plains - Personal Honor - Funeral Rites", 10 Aug 2007 - Q: Hantei personal honor is 5 while in play, but his base personal honor is 6, isn't it?
A: I don't see how you get 5. The card is printed with a 6; that's the base value. Zen Faulkes, "Utaku Plains - Personal Honor - Funeral Rites", 10 Aug 2007
