Rules Q&A

• Q: Can Tamori Shaitung exp cancel my opponent's The Wind's Truth. His argument was he wasn't targeting me, only himself as the recipient of the Wind's Truth. We pulled out the rulebook but couldn't find anything definitive.
  A: The Wind's Truth targets the honor gain or loss and the new player receiving it. Jeff Alexander, "post for 28 April 2003", 29 Apr 2003
• Q: 2. Player A duels Tamori Shaitung exp. of player B, Shaitung Calls a strike and player A plays 2 poisoned weapon and plays one wind´s truth to redirect the first lose of poisoned weapon to his opponent, player B reacts with shaitung to cancel the action. My question is, shaitung could do this beacuse she is still alive after the poisoned weapon? Shaitung is dead, se can´t use his reaction? something whent really wrong with the order of the reactions?
  A: Player A has to play one Poisoned Weapon at a time. If he's Wind's Truth-ing the loss from the first one, Shaitung is clearly still alive (5 Chi to start + focuses - 3 from PW 0). He could, however, redirect the loss from the second PW instead. Shaitung will be dead then if she focused less than 2 points during the duel.
  By the way, everyone would appreciate it if you trimmed any unnecessary lines when you quote a long email. Thanks. Jeff Alexander, "post for 30 September 2002", 1 Oct 2002
