Rules Q&A

I attack Kensai A having 2 weapons attached to province A and Kensia B naked on province B. Resolving first at A, it was a successful break and send home bowed. Resolving on province B, can I use Secret Reserve to transfer items from Kensai A at home to Kensai B at province B to make a successful province break?
Thanks.
A: No, because the Rule of Location states that "A card in a unit must be at the current battlefield to be targeted by, or explicitly perform, a Battle action.". Therefore Secret Reserve, when used as a Battle Action, may only target items at the current battlefield. Jon Palmer, "Secret Reserve", 4 Jun 2012
