Hoshi Noritada, Ring of Earth, and Element's Path

L5R CCG Rules board, 13 October 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, 13 October 2007

Hoshi Noritada Reaction: After an action resolves which Noritada performed and which targeted another player's card: Gain 2 Honor.

Battle/Open : Bow this card or discard it from your hand: Raise a target province's strength by 4.

The Elements' Path Text Kiho Open: Target one of your Monks and one of your non-Void Rings: Permanently copy an ability from the Ring to the Monk. The Monk permanently need not bow to pay costs of the copied action.

Hoshi Noritada uses The Elements' Path to copy the ability from Ring of Earth. I would like to use the copied ability to target an opponent's province, and use Noritada's reaction to gain two honor. Can I?

Hoshi Noritada uses The Elements' Path to copy the ability from Ring of Earth. I would like to use the copied ability to target an opponent's province, and use Noritada's reaction to gain two honor. Can I?

Provinces are not cards. No.
