L5R CCG Rules board, 30 May 2011 to 31 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.

its ability reads Battle: Straighten your target attachment. You may transfer it to your target Personality.

Do both targets have to be at the current battlefield?

Thanks for your time.

Permanent Encampment: Do both targets have to be at the current battlefield?

http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Battles#Rule_of_Location: "A card in a unit must be at the current battlefield to be targeted by... a Battle action."

Both are targeted. Both are in units. Thus, both must be in the current battlefield.

Note also that transfering is not moving: only units move. This means that transfering a card to a unit at the current battlefield does not fall under the exception to the Rule of Location.
