Rulings
- The force restriction is not a trait of the follower. It limits how big the follower can be made while being brought into play. Its force cannot be raised above the samurai's force as it is entering play (e.g., Kitsune Tsuke), but can be afterwards (e.g., Armory). [ZF, 18 June 2000] Rules Archive, August 18, 2007, p. 6
