Rules Q&A
- Q: Scorn the Weak Battle: Target an enemy Personality: Give him -5F. If his Force is now 0, his controller loses 1 Honor and you may target and dishonor a Personality.
Can you give -5F to some enemy personality at the current battlefield, and if their force is 0 as a result, dishonor someone else in the opponent's home? Or does the target for the dishonor effect also have to be at the current battlefield?
A: The optional additional target of Scorn the Weak must be at the current battlefield.
The Rule of Location applies to all targeting of Battle actions, mandatory and optional alike. Ben Higgins, "Scorn the Weak's dishonoring", 17 Aug 2012
