Rising Sun Blade vs Other Weapons and Attachments

L5R CCG Rules board, 9 February 2011

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.

I didn't see anything about this on the forums.

Can Rising Sun Blade destroy a Weapon, Armor, or Item provided that the Attachment in question has less than 5 Force? In simple terms, can RSB be used to destroy Chagatai's Armor?

Thank you for your time.

That's pretty much what a "card without attachments and with 5 or lower Force" means.
