Rules Q&A
- Q: (I)f I use Seiden Sanzo on Hida Kaoru, then she dies at the beginning of my dynasty phase, then on my next turn, I Will her back into play, does she still have +3 force and the cavalry trait?
A: Yes, for reasons given in previous post.
Whoopsie: That's wrong, because I missed "next turn." Effects last their normal duration whether a card is in play or out. Here, that's end of turn. Zen Faulkes, "Duration of effect on a dead personality", 9 Sep 2009
