Each Player using the same Player Ability

L5R CCG Rules board, 8 February 2010

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.

A player, 8 February 2010

Are the Player Abilities considered to be printed separately for each Player? If during Player A's turn Player B uses Plans Within Plans and then "Political Limited: Discard the Imperial Favor and a card: Draw a card. ", can Player A use that same ability if he takes the Favour in the same turn?

Are the Player Abilities considered to be printed separately for each Player? If during Player A's turn Player B uses Plans Within Plans and then "Political Limited: Discard the Imperial Favor and a card: Draw a card. ", can Player A use that same ability if he takes the Favour in the same turn?

For the purposes of Rulebook actions, each player is considered to have a separate copy of each ability.
