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.
Outmaneuvered by Force Political Interrupt: Negate the action if it is Political and taken by a player whose total Force of all units at home is now less than your total Force of all units at home (bowed cards count).
