Chagatai's Armor Vs Consumed by five fires

L5R CCG Rules board, 8 December 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 December 2010

Consumed by five fires kills a unit with Chag's armor follower and Personality. Does the Personality survive or the attachments are being consumed before they react?

Consumed by five fires kills a unit with Chag's armor follower and Personality. Does the Personality survive or the attachments are being consumed before they react?

The Reaction occurs, "Before the resolution of another player's action," which means it always comes before any effects happen (http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Abilities_and_a ... resolution).
