Rules Q&A
- Q: Will Kaede's Fan double the honor gain from Tadaji Sensei?
A: "Increase by 1 all Honor gains created by actions this Personality performs, by duels this Personality wins, and by battles won or tied by this Personality's army."
The honor gain from Tadaji Sensei is created by an Action, and it is an Action that the Personality can not and does not perform. Nor will it increase the 2 honor gain per destroyed card from Field of Glorious Slaughter. The fact that you can only use Tadaji in response to a won battle and that battle resolution caused all those triggers to Field of Glorious slaughter are both irrelevant.
In the same respect, Kaede's fan will increase the honor gain from Iaijutsu Challenge from 5 to 6, but not the honor gain of Blade of Penance's Trait or Omoidasu's Reaction (performed by Omoidasu, not the Personality with the fan). Martin Lund, "Rules for 10 September 2004", 13 Sep 2004 - Q: The Kaede's Fan increases all honor gains "Created by actions this personality performs, by duels this personality wins, ...". If I win a Iaijutsu Challenge, does this count as an action AND as a duel, giving me a 2 honor increase from the fan? Or does the fan's description of when it increases an honor gain just give a class of triggers for the increase, and once you find a trigger it activates once?
A: Just a trigger that it activates once. +1 per individual gain that satifies either or both of the source requirements. Martin Lund, "Rules for 2 July 2004", 2 Jul 2004 - Q: What about react[ion]s, like Kiyomi[.] would he gain 2 [honor] if he has Kaede's Fan ?
A: Reactions *are* actions (Gold Edition rulebook, pg. 47). Yes.
