A Favor Returned and Private Trader

L5R CCG Rules board, 25 July 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.

Can you have both A Favor Returned and Search for a Private Trader in Legacy? Both cards are not mutually exclusive... the only way I could see it not working is because of some kind of made rule saying you could not.

That's why we made one.

http://rules.l5r.com/Legacy_Format_Changes_to_the_Current_Rulebook#p._24.2C_Legacy_Holdings:

"p. 24, Legacy Holdings REPLACE "If you're not going first, you may now search" with "If you're not going first and have no holdings in play, you may now search"

ADD: "If you have put a Legacy Holding in play this way, you may not bring holdings in play except through another player's card effects until your first turn begins.

EDIT: And keep the questions to the Rules forum, please! Thread moved.
