Yodin Sensei + Charge of the first legion

L5R CCG Rules board, 6 June 2008

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, 6 June 2008

I'm using Yodin Sensei, my opponent is playing Shiro Kitsuki. If he has more personalities in play than I do and plays Charge of the First Legion to bring 4 face down personalities into play, does my sensei prevent 3 of them from entering play?

Relevant text:

Yodin Sensei:

"You cannot target other players' Personalities with card effects. The player (or players) with the most personalities in play cannot bring a Personality into play if he or she has brought a personality into play this turn."

Charge of the First Legion:

"Open: Pay 20 Gold: Bring all face-down Personalities attached to your Provinces into play, ignoring costs. Limited: If any other player has at least 35 Family Honor, bring up to 2 face-down Personalities attached to your Provinces into play, ignoring costs."

Thanks
