Hi,
I have Waystation of the path, and I'm in a battle: I have Asako karachu, Asako Heiwa and Asako Niou, and I use Heiwa's ability to give +3F to Niou, and then my opponent plays a battle action that destroys my Karachu, I react with my stronghold and overlay Karachu on Niou. How much force does this new personality have ? and why?
Thanks and regards.

The simplest way to remember the rules for Overlay is to remember that the new Personality is, for all intents and purposes, the one that was overlaid. Therefore, all effects on the Niou, in your scenario, will remain. If you overlay him with Karachu, the Karachu will be 7F.
