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.

Daidoji Gensai is at home, and he has a follower with "Battle: ranged attack 2"
The player declares Gensai battle action. Would be legal to increase his ranged attack with the one from the follower, even if at that time the follower is not at a battlefield, and he does not fullfill the rule of location?
Thanks!

I'm afraid it's not legal for the reasons stated
