City of Remembrance cost reduction?

L5R CCG Rules board, 12 April 2005

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from the Wayback Machine (its copy), so posts 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.

No; cost reductions last until something is paid for (Enemy of My Enemy rulesheet).

This also applies to CoR, right? Like for Price of Power or other stuffs that calculate unit total gold costs?

That's my understanding of the rule.

I have to overrule Zen here. The new rule applies only to cost reductions that do not have an explicit duration and rely on the default duration of "until the turn ends".

The cost reduction from City of Remembrance is continual and lasts all game. It works the same as it did before.
