A player, 7 August 2007

Hello!

I just started playing L5R with the Samurai edition, and I have a question about the Event card Winter Storm (Until the end of the game, after each time an attack is declared, each player targets two of his unbowed Personalities with a Gold Cost equal to or less than his Stronghold's Gold production plus 2. Bow them.)

If a player has only one unbowed Personalty that fits the criteria of Winter Storm does that Personality have to be bowed?

Yes. You have to fulfill as much of the effect as you can. Comprehensive Rules, Special Wording: "If the presence of an exact number of things is being checked for, this will be noted by language such as "exactly two' or 'only one,' or by mentioning two or more specific numbers such as "zero or one.'"
