Rules Q&A
- Q: DO reactions, such as Strength of Bamboo cause me to target my personality with a -3 force penalty if Temporizing Ground is in play? Thanks.
A: Yes. Reactions are "actions".
Anything preceded by the boldface words "Battle", "Open", "Limited", and/or "Reaction" is an action, and counts for effects that look for "actions" being taken, resolving, etc. Brook Cunningham, "Temporizing Ground + Reactions", 31 Jan 2011
