Rulings
- Erratum: Reads, "Shout of Defiance 0G 1FV You may have up to 6 copies of this card in your deck. Shout Heroic Battle: Target one of your Personalities: He gains +1F, an additional +1F if he is a Hero, and an additional +1F if he is opposed."

Rules Q&A
- Q: Hey Zen you stated in this post viewtopic.php?f=59&t=60311#p772479 that kaiu hisayuki would tentatively gain +3 force for being opposed but you needed to do more research. just wondering if you have come to final ruling as to why it would be +3 and not +4 when opposed Hisayuki trait is "increase by 1 all Force bonuses Hisayuki receives from abilities on cards that are not in this unit. These increases last as long as the bonuses do." Shout of Defiance text is Target one of your Personalities: He gains +1F, an additional +1F if he is a Hero, and an additional +1F if he is opposed.
I read the Shout as having 3 separate Force bonuses do to the inclusion of the word additional. if the wording had been "a further +1" i could see it being all one bonus

A: Having been away from this for a while and having more familiarity with the Samurai Edition rules, I'm changing the old ruling. Each bonus is separate, and is increased by Hisayuki's trait separately. so +4F.
The old post has been updated accordingly. Zen Faulkes, "Kaiu Hisayuki + Shout of Defiance", 22 Sep 2007 - Q: Kaiu Hisayuki + Shout of Defiance: If opposed, would Hisayuki gain:4 force, 3 force, Something different.
A: Tentatively, 3F. Have to do some more checking though.
Additional: Each bonus is separate, and is increased by Hisayuki's trait separately. so +4F. Zen Faulkes, "Kaiu Hisayuki force bonuses", 9 Aug 2007
