Rules Q&A
- Q: Does having base personal honer of 6 override the rulebook maximum of PH5 per 1st cardinal rule? (if a card breaks a rule, use the card)
Or is it still capped down to 5, they can just receive a -1 PH and still be at 5? (and counts as 6 when anything targets, uses, or compares 'base personal honor' making them nukes vs. den of iniquity and/or R. bazaar)
Example cards with base PH 6:
Hantei
Doji
since base PH and PH technically are not the same thing, its grey to me. Also, we say Hantei can assign vs. Ki-Rin (which was the only situation where it came up in our group prior to these base PH comparing cards in EE) which this will confirm/deny
A: The First Cardinal Rule allows their PH of 6.
The Ki-Rin will not keep Hantei or Doji from attacking you. Jon Palmer, "base Personal Honor 6 vs. maximum PH 5", 28 Feb 2012 - 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
