pen: Bow one or more of your target unbowed Personalities. Bow one or more target Personalities, each controlled by a different player, with total Force less than the total Force of your Personalities this bowed.
How many units can I bow on a one-on-one game? I understand that you can only bow one, but I just need to get this clarified.

You may bow any number of your own units, but only one opposing unit.
