I know for a range attack to be considered successful it has to "kill" it's target, but if I produce a range 2 attack from Shiro Daidoji that doesn't kill someone, is the action now successful because I gained 2 honor?

Shiro Daidoji and succesful 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.

Yes, the action would be successful.
"Success" occurs if at least some of an action's effects produce a change in game state, not necessarily ALL of its effects.
