A player, 8 December 2010
Okay, so I just thought of something... Kuon: "After the first time each battle another player's action targets Kuon: If he is the only Personality in his army, the action's (remaining) effects do not happen."
Delayed Conflict: Starting with you, each player targets one of his Personalities (at the current battlefield). Move each of them home. This movement will not be negated.
So... the question is... if say i have personality "X" at the current battlefield and my opponent only has a Kuon that has not yet had his trait triggered... Does this action trigger his trait? Or does it go through it? My thoughts say that it would go through it because my opponent targets... not me. Though I am probably wrong.
Thanks in advance! ;D

(I)if say i have personality "X" at the current battlefield and my opponent only has a Hida Kuon (Exp. 6) that has not yet had his trait triggered... Does (Delayed Conflict) trigger his trait? Or does it go through it?
All that matters is whose action it is, and that it targets.
Who is doing the targeting does not matter.
It's your action (I'm assuming). It targets. Trait triggers.
