Rules Q&A
- Q: So, I have been hunting around the Googlenet, and have yet to find an answer to this question. I also haven't found any mention of it, so it might just be so obvious to not need mentioning, lol. Anyways, what if I were to combine Koan's Scroll satchel with a spell like Seeking the Way or Shielded by Tempest? Would the spell be unable to resolve because the personalities cannot move home, or would it be fine, as that is part of the effect and not a cost (so it would be like bowing a bowed guy)? Thanks for your time.
Koan's scroll satchel:"Open, w: Give Home to one or more Spells in this unit, up to the number of Koan cards in this unit. (Home actions may be used from home.)" Seeking the way: "Air Battle: Bow this Shugenja to move home a target attacking Personality and himself. Gain 2 Honor." Seeking the way:Air Battle, w: If this Shugenja is opposed, give this Province +2 strength and gain 1 Honor. Move this Shugenja home.
A: It would work with Seeking the Way - the effect of moving your shugenja home would fail, of course, but the attacker would still move home and you would gain 2 honor (actions only stop resolving when targeting fails, not when an effect fails).
Shielded by Tempest would not work, however, because you would not be able to meet the "If this shugenja is opposed" clause at the beginning. Jon Palmer, "Koan's scroll satchel and Seeking the way", 12 Mar 2014
