- "The spirit of Rokugan is more than steel. It is in the respect between two old friends, or even that between two old enemies. Politics and sincerity are its lifeblood, and war is only its visceral unpleasantness." - Otomo Taneji

Rules Q&A
- Q: The new box-topper from THW reads:
"Until the end of the game, lobbying is an Open action for you."
Does that mean that lobbying loses the Political keyword, or does it only modify the Limited actions type, and retain the Political keyword?
A: The latter is correct. Lobbying is still Political.
Such phrasings only change the designator and not any keywords; if removing keywords was meant, it would be explicit (eg Black Heart of the Empire's "Lobbying is not Political for you."). Brook Cunningham, "The Heart Speaks", 2 Oct 2008
