Just want to confirm:
In Celestial, do unbowed Followers on bowed Personalities contribute Force for battle resolution?
Just for the benefit of L5R trivia:
When did this change? At one point, didn't an unit led by a bowed Personality contribute no Force?
Dan Jacobson (rules official), 7 February 2010
An army's total Force is the sum of the modified Force of all unbowed Personalities and Followers in the army.
This rule changed as of Samurai Edition.
