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.

For effects that trigger when an item or follower 'attaches'. Do they still take effect on the new personality when that item or follower is shared?
Example Blade of Guile. Can I attach it to a dishonored personality, rehonor him, then share it to another dishonored personality and rehonor them as well?
Thank you

No. Comprehensive Rules, Attach: "Transferring a card from one unit to another is not attaching."
