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.

Attempting to be more clear and specific.
You may combine Ranged Attacks from different units. Once per battle, you may target the current Province with an uncombined Ranged Attack from an attacking card you control at that battlefield. The attack reduces the Province’s strength by its strength. Once per battle, a card you control needs not bow to produce a Ranged Attack targeting cards opposing it.
Battle: Target a Personality you control at the current battlefield: He produces a number of simultaneous Ranged 1 Attacks up to his Force. Battle: Target and Dishonor a Personality you control at the current battlefield: He produces a Ranged Attack with a strength equal to his Force.
Can a player using Castle of the Wasp combine a ranged attack from I Know That Trick with a ranged attack printed on another personality? With another I Know That Trick performed by another personality? Does the fact that the personalities are producing the ranged attack rather than the player (such as with Tsuruchi Techniqu) matter here?
A player using Castle of the Wasp has three copies of Moshi Amika out; A, B and C (A has some force boosting item, rendering her at 3 force). A performs the first battle action on I Know That Trick. May one of the resulting ranged attacks be combined with B, and one with C? (For an end result of simultaneous Ranged 5, Ranged 5, Ranged 1)
Same situation as abover, but with Moshi Amika and Moshi Amika xp. May one of the IKTT ranged attacks be combined with Moshi Amika xp's first battle action, and one with Moshi Amika xp's second battle action? (For an end result of simultaneous Ranged 7, Ranged 7, Ranged 1)
Thanks!

It's basically word for word the same question as previously posted (and answered!) in http://www.alderac.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=48829&highlight=trick+combine.
