A player, 13 March 2015
The battle action listed on the card states as follows. "Put Shiho on the top of your Dynasty deck (face-down). Put all cards without attachments in a target enemy Personality's unit on the bottom of their appropriate deck." The scenario is the opponent has five Personalities in the current battlefield. Four of these Personalities are cards without attachments and one has attachments.
Questions based on the scenario: 1. What is the interpretation (ruling) of the opponents five Personalities at the battlefield. Is this the opponents "unit" or is that considered an "army"?
So based on the interpretation (ruling) the following option would apply. 1. If this is considered a "unit" then the four separate personalities are placed at the bottom of his/her deck. 2. If it is considered an "army" then you can only single out one personality.

A "unit" is a Personality plus all his attachments. A number of units at a battlefield make up an army.
For Ninube Shiho, you target one unit (personality plus his attachments). If the Personality has attachments, they are put on the bottom of their owner's deck. If the Personality does not have attachments, the Personality is put on the bottom of its owner's deck.
