Rules Q&A
- Q: Poorly Chosen Allies reads: Limited: Choose a player who has two or more different Clan alignments among Personalities he controls. He loses 3 Honor.
Is it safe to assume unaligned personalities (such as ronin, goblins, undead, oni, etc.) do not count when checking for Clan alignments?
A: You don't need to assume that, it's true. See Clan Alignment: Legal Clan alignments in Celestial Edition are: * Crab Clan * Crane Clan * Dragon Clan * Lion Clan * Mantis Clan * Phoenix Clan * Scorpion Clan * Spider Clan * Unicorn Clan
No other keywords indicate a Clan Alignment (in Celestial Edition). Alex Jones, "Poorly Chosen Allies", 25 Jan 2010
