Rules Q&A
- Q: Apologies all if this has been asked to death already, but I have a couple of questions about judgement of toshiken...
Judgement of Toshiken 0G 2FV Reaction: Play this card after players reveal Focus cards in a duel. Resolve the duel only by the Chi (or other stat noted on the card creating the duel) of the dueling Personalities before the challenge, plus the Focus cards' printed Focus values. The Double Chi trait works as usual. If either Personality has not focused, each can focus an extra time, starting with the challenged Personality.
1) Poisoned weapon... Had a bit of an arguement about this with someone last night. As far as _I_ read the cards, Poisoned weapon will take effect - killing anyone on chi+focus values <4 BEFORE duel resolution (by the wording on poisoned weapon). Also (as stated in the the accumulated rulings) the poison will continue to give -3 chi for the rest of the turn after the duel.
However, the actual duel resolution will be worked out without the poisoned weapons effect (as the chi used is read prior to the challenge).
A: All correct. Jeff Alexander, "post for 6 February 2002", 7 Feb 2002 - Q: 2. Can the Sensei be used on altering actions as Poisoned weapon for example?
A: Not Poisoned Weapon, no, because Poisoned Weapon does not target your Personality. Jeff Alexander, "Rulings for 11 Jan 2001", 13 Jan 2001 - Q: Would Moto Ogedei be considered to be immune to the effects of "Poisoned thread"?
A: Yes. Zen Faulkes, "Moto Ogedei + Poisoned thread", 5 Mar 2005
