Bayushi Hisoka

L5R CCG Rules board, 1 August 2007

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.

A player, 1 August 2007

Since Samurai has been released and there are already a few questions regarding samurai cards I'm assuming the sticky just hasn't been updated.

My question refers to Bayushi Hisoka who's trait reads : After Hisoka enters play: Target a card. While Hisoka remains in play, after each time that card bows, its controller loses 2 Honor.

If I target a personality are they able to commit seppuku when they bow. It would appear not given that A: It is a trait and not an action and B: The card, not the personality is causing the honor loss.

Incorrect assumption.

General rules questions are fine. Specific Samurai Edition card questions are discouraged.
