Rules Q&A
- Q: Lets say player A has 20 family honor and Player B has 15 family honor. Player B has a straightened Seven Fold Palace. Player A lobbies the favor as his first open/limited. Then player B uses Seven Fold Palace and targets his personality.
What happens? Does player A lose the favor and player B takes it. Or does nothing happen because only one person can have the favor at one time and Player B has less family honor.
thanks in advance
[Mod edit: Typo in title fixed. - ZF]
A: Lobbying for the Favor is limited by the Once per Turn default for rulebook actions.
Taking the favor is not, and does not require your family honor be higher than anyone elses. Dan Jacobson, "Lobbying vs taking the favor", 1 Mar 2010
