Just a clarification, can you play Death of the Winds and use the rulebook "Tactical Advantage" on the same Tactician during a battle? Or multiple Death of the winds on a single Tactician?
I'm asking because in EE and before there was a limit of one "Tactical" action per tactician per battle, but the Ivory manual does not have anything regarding this limit. So, i think it's allowed now, just wanna be sure.
Thanks,

There are no rules for Tactical actions in Ivory. The only rule is that Tacticians have an ability on them granted by the rulebook, and called "Tactical Advantage", but the ability does not have the Tactical keyword. See the Comprehensive Rules, p58. Nothing stops you using a Tactician's ability and targeting him with Death of the Winds in the same turn.
Anyway, Death of the Winds is not a Tactical action - even under Emperor Edition rules, you could target one Tactician with any number in one battle, if you had the gold to spend.
Btw, the limit from Samurai Edition to Emperor Edition was one Tactical action per Tactician per turn, not per battle.
