This is in regards to his ability; Battle: Attach your target discarded Follower to a target Personality in Hiroshi's army. My question is are all followers in your discard pile considered to have been discarded even those that were killed through battle resolution or some other card effect? Or am I supposed to keep track of which followers have actually been discarded (ie Focused, discarded from my hand or from play etc.) and those are the only ones targetable by his action?

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.

The former.
