Rules Q&A
- Q: Player A plays Lion. He has an Akodo`s Guidance in play and is attacking with a 3PH personality (i.e. Ikoma Hagio). Thanks to the Guidance Hagio has 4PH while attacking.
Player B defends with Seppun Tashime exp. (4PH).
Can Player A discard the Guidance and destroy Ikoma Hagio to destroy Tashime? Or would the action fail, because the +1PH bonus is gone (Hagio is dead and no longer attacking), before Tashime would be destroyed?
Thank you!
Akodo`s Guidance Kami • Unique Attacking Lion Clan Personalities have +1F and +1PH. Battle: If you are a Lion Clan player, discard this card and destroy your target Lion Clan Personality: Destroy a target enemy Personality with equal or lower Personal Honor.
A: The targeting requirement ("enemy Personality with equal or lower Personal Honor") is checked before costs are paid, ie before Hagio is destroyed.
