Rules Q&A
- Q: Hi Jeff, Here's an interesting one for you. According to a couple of the sites I've looked at, Rich Wulf has apparently said that players can declare Daigotsu as their wind in storyline events. My question is: Is this considered to be playing a wind for Play purposes (ie. events like Kaneka's Blockade, the Shogun's Fealty) or will it merely be considered for storyline implications.
A: It's just a storyline thing. Mechanically, you have no Wind. Jeff Alexander, "post for 4 September 2002", 5 Sep 2002
