Rules Q&A
- Q: 6.- My Goju Adorai 4/4 gets a -2 chi penalty for that "The First Scroll is Opened". Later, I copy the ninja with "The Egg of Pan-Ku". Has the Egg 4 or 2 chi?
A: 2. The First Scroll is Opened creates a permanent change. The Egg copies permanent changes. Jeff Alexander, "Rulings for 6 March 2001", 18 Mar 2001
