Rules Q&A

• Q: Sorry, but I'm a little confused again. Here you state that "you can never control two Unique cards with the same title at the same time, regardless of their Experience levels" and that I understand but what about "Non-Unique, non-Experienced versions of a card do not affect the legality of including Unique Experienced or Inexperienced versions of it in a deck, or the legality of playing those Experienced versions" (from the experienced rule).
  Does that mean that if I have two Shinjo Junpei in play I can bring a Shinjo Junpei exp into play?
  A: The text you quote means exactly that. Alex Jones, "Unique and Experience", 2 Oct 2012
• Q: I while I know that the rules doesn't normally take rules questions until the set is released, Embers of War has been pre-released and the 30 legality countdown has already started (actually 29 days) and we have cards in hand. If we have to wait until full release (may 14th) then we would only have 19 days to ask questions instead of 29. With that in mind I hope we can start asking question now.
  Does Shinjo Junpei (exp) ability require the performing unbowed personality to also be a Tactician (assuming Shinjo Junpei is at home)? If yes, does Shinjo Junpei ability also use up that tactician's tactical action for the turn?
  A: The rules for Tactical say this: An action with the Tactical keyword can only be performed by a Tactician Personality (see Perform). Each Tactician can only perform one Tactical action per turn. Alex Jones, "Shinjo Junpei exp", 7 May 2012
