Rules Q&A
- Q: When I overlay Yoritomo Exp2 over Yoritomo Exp and then overlay Yoritomo exp3 over Exp2. What exactly can Yoritomo do and what does he do for the army if anything?
A: Traits replace, abilities add (Gold Edition ruilebook, pg. 36). Remember, "ability" means text prefaced by "Limited," "Open," "Battle," or "Reaction" (Gold Edition rulebook, pg. 33). Zen Faulkes, "Rules for 19 August 2003", 19 Aug 2003 - Q: What does 'join this battle' mean on Ambush? Does this mean assign, move into, or both? Ie, can Yoritomo exp3 move into an ambush with his action?
A: Both. No. Jeff Alexander, "replies to 16 June", 20 Jun 2001 - Q: If I'm attacking with a Yoritomo Random at province 1 and with Tsuruchi Random at province 2 and I have the chance to go first on both battles (let's assume it's cause I have naval). If I resolve at province 1 and as my first battle action I attach a item on my Yoritomo peep there and chose not to make a aditional battle action. At province 2 if attach a card to my Tsuruchi peep can I now get a aditional battle action even if that were not my first battle action that attached something?
A: No. Zen Faulkes, "Eastern Hub Port and First Attachment.", 11 Sep 2007
