Ambush and Purge the weak

L5R CCG Rules board, 13 June 2008 to 17 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.

According to this post ambush resolves prior to the battle beginning: viewtopic.php?f=59&t=68465

So I could use Purge the Weak to take an additional LIMITED action, after I've played Ambush but before the battle begins?

Thanks

Yes, you could take an additional Limited Action before the delayed effect of "fight a battle" that Ambush created gets applied. The delayed effect of "fight a battle" can't be applied until all players have successively passed on the opportunity to play Reactions after Ambush resolved.
