Copying a Tactical ability

L5R CCG Rules board, 20 May 2011 to 21 May 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'm pretty sure I'm correct, but in regards to viewtopic.php?f=59&t=90580

If an ability that reads:

Tactical Battle: blah blah blah

is copied by (or on to) a personality without the tactician keyword, then that personality cannot perform the action correct?

Correct.
