Rules Q&A
- Q: You never can reveal focus cards in an unprepared duel (not because you have no focus cards, but because Unprepared tells you to skip that step). Unprepared does not say immediately reveal focus cards. It says "Win Duel".
A: I'll see what the Rules Team wants to do with this one. Jeff Alexander, "post for 31 July 2002", 1 Aug 2002 - Q: Howdy,
First of all, I have a question about the new card Unprepared and the card Judgement of Toshiken. If I play Unprepared after one of my personnalities is challenged and my opponent has higher chi and plays Judgement of Toshiken what would happen?
A: Judgment of Toshiken can't be played after Unprepared. Unprepared forces the duel to resolve immediately. Jeff Alexander, "post for 29 April 2002", 30 Apr 2002 - Q: Unprepared: Reaction: Play after one of your Personalities with both an Armor and Weapon enters a duel with a Personality who does not have both. The duel resolves immediately. Your Personality wins.
Now, I would think this is pretty clear cut, but I got into a discussion about this with someone. My Personality has both an Armor and a Weapon. In order for this card to work, must the Personality I'm entering a duel *against* not have neither a Weapon nor Armor attached? Or does this card mean that as long as they have one or the other (or no items at all), but don't have both, I'll win the duel?
A: You can play it if the other Personality has just one of the two or has neither. Jeff Alexander, "post for 9 April 2002", 10 Apr 2002
