Rules Q&A
- Q: If I use the Battle action on Yoritomo Sunagawa to bow a follow on another personality who has Tsuruchi's Legacy equipped would the Ranged Attack get the +1 Strength or would Sunagawa himself need to be wielding the Legacy?
A: http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Glossary_F#From: "The source is the card that the effect, action or targeting is printed on, or the rulebook if it is printed there."
The Ranged Attack is thus "from" Yoritomo Sunagawa, ragardless of what Follower is bowed. Thus, Tsuruchi's Legacy will only affect a Ranged Attack taken using Yoritomo Sunagawa's ability if it is attached to Yoritomo Sunagawa. Zen Faulkes, "Sunagawa and Tsuruchi's Legacy", 29 Dec 2010
