With regards to the rulings on 7th Tower and Greater Sacrifice.

If my opponent controls an unbowed 2F Personality, with a bowed 4F weapon, what is the "unit force".

Could I greater sacrifice for a combined Personal Honor + Force of 4 to destroy the unit, or is the weapon adding force to the unbowed personality, thus causing me to need a combined PH and Force of 6?

6.

Items always add directly to Personality.
