CoM events clarification

L5R CCG Rules board, 17 May 2013

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

Read the bit stickied at the top, and am left with a relevant question:

With ivory worded events in ee just happening as if they're traits, are the all mandatory, or optional?

Under discussion.

Traits are mandatory by default.

This will apply to the Ivory-legal CoM Events and how they resolve, as that is how they were designed and play tested under the Emperor Edition rule set.
