Rules Q&A
- Q: Marty, is this a rules change?
Because, from the AR :
An Experienced card can be overlaid on a less-experienced card even if the title of the less experienced card does not match the trait on the Experienced card, as long as there is an **** unbroken **** chain along the experience levels. E.g., the Experienced 2 Ninja Mystic can be overlaid on either the Ninja Mystic (whose trait reads, "Experienced Hoskei") or Hoseki. [ZF, 10 April 2003]
Emphasis mine, The chain is not unbroken from 1 to 7. Unless I've misunderstood, I was under the impression that unbroken meant EXP1, then 2, then 3 without a gap.
A: It's not a change. "Unbroken" is a redundant word in that sentence (if the chain is broken, it isn't a chain). It means nothing. Martin Lund, "Rules for 7 September 2004", 10 Sep 2004 - Q: Hoseki / Ninja Mystic Hoseki can attach a single spell and use it as a shugenja but it is not an ability but a trait. If she had a spell attached before she was experienced into Ninja Mystic can she still use the spell?
A: No. Old traits are lost when you overlay. Jeff Alexander, "Rulings for 18 March 2001", 24 Mar 2001
