A player, 3 July 2008
Lion clan personality assigns to attack province A. Defending player assigns one of his units to defend the same province. Lion clan player resolves the battle in province B. No units are assigned to attack or defend there. Defending player passes. Lion clan player uses The Lion's Strength targeting his opposed Lion clan personality in province A as a cost then moves him to province B.
Is this action legal?
Code: Select all The Lion's Strength
Battle: Target one of your opposed Lion Clan Personalities: Target a Personality not at the current battlefield. Move him to the current battlefield. Straighten him if you do not control him.
