A player, 22 December 2007

Courage:

Bushido Virtue Battle: Until this battle ends, other players’ cards' effects can not move home your honorable Samurai. Bushido Virtue Battle: Until this battle ends, other players’ cards' effects can not bow cards in units led by your honorable Samurai.

Encircled Terrain:

Terrain Battle: Before this battle’s resolution, the Attacker and Defender, in the order of your choice, each choose one of his units at the current battlefield. Then, move all other units there home.

Question:

If I were to use Courage for anti-moving home in the same battle that my opponent used encircled terrain, would its effect be negated for me?
