Rules Q&A

• Q: As if Marty and Jeff did not have enough work,
  I apologize if this has been answered here, I have not seen it yet.
  Ninja Mentor under Tishi Sensei. Does the follower become 2/ +3 ? Or does the follower itself merely gain 1 chi ?
  A: 2 / +3
  For more information, check out the message: "[L5R-CCG] Rules for 24 and 25 October 2004 [RULES]" in my reply to Shosuro Kenshin's message: "[L5R-CCG] Followers and Chi bonuses"

  Do a find for "Ninja Mentor" and you should find it about halfway down the page. Martin Lund, "Rules for 30 November 2004", 3 Dec 2004
• Q: 1) Tishi Sensei says my honor gains have a maximum value of 1. If I bring in a personality for full to gain one honor (or gain honor in any other way, really) can my opponent use Doji Nagori's ability to increase the gain, even though I won't get the additional honor, and gain an honor himself from Nagori's ability? I would think not due to the wording of Tishi being a "maximum value of 1".
  A: He can use the ability. The value of your honor gain is still capped at 1. The other part of Nagori's ability resolves just fine. Nagori's controller gains 1 honor. Martin Lund, "Rules for 22-25 August 2004", 30 Aug 2004
• Q: Marty, I posted a question on the 10th of August asking for a review of the Honor Requirements for Kolat recruiter. Could you pass this on to the Rules Junta? (I expect that this request is too late to impact GenCon, but I don't Kolat Recruiter being viable until Tishi Sensei anyway).
  A: The ruling stands. An Honor Requirement is a restriction. Kolat Recruiter says restrictions must be met. Martin Lund, "Rules for 14 - 17 August 2004", 18 Aug 2004
