Reserve via Naval - Conflicting Ruling

L5R CCG Rules board, 25 January 2014

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.

The first ruling said it wasn't possible because the Reserve was a rulebook ability, not from the Naval Personality, thus being unable to fill the requirements for a declaration of Naval. The second, on the other hand - about Reserving Tsuruchi Gosho via Naval - was ruled a 'yes'.

I fail to see the difference between the questions, and although that is a possibility, I believe it's better to simply ask the Rule Team.

Which one is correct?

The older one. Fixing. Apologies for the mistake.
