Q: Also: how do Yu and TtLM interact with cards that have timing clauses like "attacking this Province" or "in a battle at this Province"? Would Force-reducing cards like Moat or Road of Dust apply? I'm guessing not, since the "Aftermath" section of the rulings states that "only defending units remain in battle after resolution," but I wanted to get clarification.
A: Penalties that only last "for" or "until the end of" the battle, or while cards are "attacking", "defending", or "in an army/battle", will still be in effect when it comes time for Yu to kill things. Jeff Alexander, "post for 10 October 2001", 11 Oct 2001
