Assault Unit + Fear Action

L5R CCG Rules board, 17 September 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.

I'm pretty sure that you can't do the following but I just wanted to know the official ruling:

If you were to attach Assault Unit during battle, to a personality with a Fear battle action (Let's say Diagotsu Roburo), can you combine the 2 to make a Fear 7?

Assault Unit: Interrupt: After the action Equips this Follower at a battlefield, Fear 3 Diagotsu Roburo: Fear 4

Cheers!

And thanks for all your hard work!

In order to increase Fears, you have to Interrupt them, and you can't Interrupt Interrupts, so indeed, you can't do that.

You're also quite welcome, thanks.
