A player, 6 January 2008
Because it isn't covered and it is causing confusion due to other responses to rules questions about this card:
Situation:
Bayushi Hisako faces an army of dishonorable personalities. She is destroyed.
Prior responses indicate that her Reaction to Dishonor a personality who opposed her when she was destroyed comes before the point where an honor gain would happen, thus negating any honor gain.
My opponent was under the impression that this would prevent all rehonoring of enemy personalities. I disagree with this, believing that the attempted honor gain would rehonor all personalities except for the one that is targeted by Hisako.
Who is correct?

http://rules.l5r.com/Physically_marked_ ... shonorable: "Before a player with one or more dishonorable Personalities in his or her army gains Honor from allying with that army (see Invite Allies) or from destroying opposing cards in battle resolution, all such dishonorable Personalities are rehonored and the Honor is not gained." It's not an "instead" kind of situation. You rehonor everyone except the one that can't be rehonored.
