Hello,

Can you play Outer Walls at a battlefield without a province?

Relevant text: Outer Walls Battle: Even if you control no units at the current battlefield: Give its province +3 strength.

Ambush Limited: Target one of your unbowed Personalities: Create a battlefield (not at any province). Assign your Personality to attack there. Assign another player’s target Personality to defend there, even if bowed. No other units may move there. Fight a battle there. After it ends, lose 5 Honor.

Thanks!
