Rules Q&A
- Q: How much gold does permanent encampment produce towards paying for peasant armor's limited action?
A: 2. You're paying for an action, not an item. Zen Faulkes, "Permanent Encampment + Peasant Armor", 24 Apr 2010 - Q: Since attaching an item is an action, does attaching peasant armor (-2 chi item) to a 2 chi personality trigger Udo's ability (the personality was destroyed by the armor)?
A: No.
Effects come from where the effects are printed in ink (http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Effects#Source_of_effects). In this case, that means the item is the source of the -2C. Zen Faulkes, "Udo and Peasant Armor", 23 Mar 2010
