Rules Q&A
- Q: Ok, lets start this...
First, all involve Bayushi Tsimaru (experienced)
Scorpion Clan • Samurai • Experienced • Unique Other players can not target Tsimaru with Political actions. Reaction: Twice per turn, before a unit moves: Negate the movement.
Ok lets go...
A - Fusami uses her Battle, Tsimaru negates the movement, What happen? Does the challenge still goes on? The card dont say that if it moved...
Fusami
Reaction: After another player's target Personality assigns or moves to an army attacking you: Fusami moves to the target's location and challenges him. The challenge may be refused; if it is refused, bow the target and move him home. Destroy the loser.
B - Overhelming speed says:
Overwhelming Speed
Battle: Target one of your Cavalry units: Bow and move home a target enemy Infantry unit with less Force.
If Tsimaru negates its movement, does the personality still bows? Can Tsimaru even try to negate the movement, for that he must bow first then move, following the card text?
A: You want the FAQ, methinks.
